Hey Martijn, Apologies for my delay getting back to you.
As suggested - I added a link on the destination page [1] For this location [2] the interchange information would look like this: destination=West Valley destination:ref=UT 201 West destination:street=1300 South;2100 South as updated here [3] Note how the destination:street values follow the OSM pattern of spelling out street names. Also, the semicolon separated names are easily read into a a list of exit branch street names. If user would would continue and take exit 305C onto 1300 South [4] as captured here [5] then the software can rank, sort, and collapse the consecutive exit information - therefore, "1300 South" would take precedence over "2100 South" I briefly discussed this at SotM US 2015 [6] at 12:23 into the video. I can follow-up with you after the OSM data has been processed with recent edits.
