Optimal routes are rare, but there are ‘better’ routes. People have different cycling preferences. Road riding and off-road cycling are found here. Road lanes and bike paths may not be continuous but there is usually enough to make a worthwhile route.
Overview
Riding on the bike path is 1.2 km further (14%) and 9 min slower (33% greater travel time).

Usage
The maps and routes are available on Komoot. The routes may differ to the official CBR Cycle Routes (that have grown historically). The routing algorithm and travel time estimates are derived from Komoot using standard settings. Komoot is free, and is available as a website and smartphone app. It is worthwhile creating an account. The map data is from OpenStreetMap.
