What I would like to do is simply merge a node of the road and a node

Because that would then be a ford rather than a culvert - you're
implying that at a certain point (the joining node) you've got your feet
on the road and in the stream?
In the case where a culvert carries a watercourse over a road then it
would make sense to create a way and layer=1
That sounds (at least in English English) like some sort of bridge
(aqueduct) rather than a culvert - though this did come up the last time
that culverts were discussed on this list** - someone found an old
picture of a car going over a bridge over a culvert and thought that the
picture's title ("the culvert") referred to the bridge.
If you genuinely don't know how a road crosses a waterway then you can
of course just have the one crossing the other. QA sites will flag this
as an error (which is correct - it is) but if you don't have any
information about how to correct the error (is there a ford? bridge? is
there no bridge but the stream runs in a box culvert?) then to my mind
there's no problem leaving the "error" there so that someone who has
more information can correct it.

gets some hits. There were also a bunch of discussions around the time
that
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Simple_one_node_bridge
was created - so have a look at the lists then.
