When the new alphanumeric route numbers in NSW were unveiled, some of the motorways were renamed (e.g. Sydney-Newcastle Freeway became Pacific Motorway, South-Western Motorway became Hume Motorway).
In OSM these all have the new route number included in the road name (e.g. name=M4 Western Motorway, rather than name=Western Motorway). The signs on these roads don’t include the route number as part of the name. Does anyone object if I rename these roads without the route number (route number will remain in the ref=* tag)? Or is there a good reason for the route number to remain in the name tag?
