I should have been a little clearer, Each element now has two attributes highway=raceway and highway=primary, a single way should only have one highway attribute.
The tagging guidelines https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Draceway <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway=raceway> seem to imply its an either/or thing. I’m searching for a tag other than “highway=raceway” to apply to the relation, like a bus route for example.
