Currently, the map style in the Strava Route Builder is very minimalistic, making it difficult to distinguish between different road types (e.g., major highways vs. quiet side roads) at a glance.
My goal is to explore new areas and intentionally ride on roads where my Personal Heatmap is still empty. However, without a clear visual hierarchy of road sizes, similar to the styling found on Komoot or standard OpenStreetMap, it is hard to plan safe and enjoyable routes. I often find myself accidentally routing onto busy main roads because they look identical to small backroads on the map.
I would love to see improved map contrasts or a "Street" layer that clearly differentiates road categories by line thickness or color. This would make the Route Builder much more powerful for explorers.
