If the street sign at the end says Smith St then that should go in as
the name tag. Lalbert Kerang Rd can go in as the alt_name tag.

G'day all,
We needed our daughter to pick something up from Lalbert and since she
had never driven there herself, we looked up the map. However, Smith St did
not appear, instead tagged as the Lalbert Kerang Rd, as here: https://
www.openstreetmap.org/way/80838220#map=17/-35.67595/143.37920
For the locals and for street numbers, it is Smith St, at least from the Swan
Hill - Donald road to the rail tracks. How can I tag to reflect this, leaving
the Lalbert - Kerang tag for the bigger picture?
On a secondary note, the node for Lalbert is in the middle of empty land:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1774352212#map=16/-35.6726/143.3759 Should
this be moved a bit more centrally, like near the cafe and garage on Main St?
I have seen both these scenarios a few times in the hamlets around here.
Apart from tidiness, would this also improve routing?
