That is direction of a traffic sign node, based on direction of the way.

In context of the traffic sign nodes,

direction=forward, or less used traffic_sign:forward=

means the traffic sign orientation is the same as the way orientation.

direction=backward, or less used traffic_sign:backward=*

means the traffic sign orientation is the opposite to the way orientation.

Key:direction#Forward_and_backward <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:direction#Forward_and_backward>

Unfortunately, it does not ensure the router interprets it correctly or at all.

Another issues may be related to the used mapping,
as some sign nodes are not a part of the way they relate to,
and the router may not be aware of them in context of the way segment.
