I can't see an easy way to do a 'twice per week' collection where the 
particular days aren't known. Messing about in the validator 
(https://openingh.openstreetmap.de/evaluation_tool/ ) and looking at their 
examples (bottom of the screen) suggests that complex cases can be expressed as 
a text comment. Making this 'valid' appears to require a comment for both 
normal times and public holdidays, the latter prefixed by a PH. 

So if you know it's tuesdays and thursdays:
 * collection_times=Mo; Fr

If you know it's twice per week, even on public holidays:
 * collection_times="twice per week"; PH "twice per week"

If you know it's twice per week, but not on public holidays:
 * collection_times="twice per week"; PH off

If you know it's twice per week, but have no info on public hols, this might be 
the best compromise:
 * collection_times="twice per week"
