Case 2. Very occasionally, there will be more than one street name
shown, usually when the ramp ends at or near a point where a street
changes name. Use semicolons to place multiple values in the exit_to and
exit_to_dir tags. e.g.:

"Exit 73 / Diamond Drive / Railroad Canyon Road"
is tagged
ref="73" +
exit_to="Diamond Drive;Railroad Canyon Road"

"Exit 183 / SR-247 South / Barstow Road"
is tagged
ref="183" +
exit_to="CA-247;Barstow Road" +
exit_dir="South;"

Does exit direction refer to the compass direction of the intersecting road, or the signed direction, and if so which road in the list?

  Sign:  I77 North; US 44 East; NC 56 East; Charlotte; Rock Hill; York

[ I made that up, but I remember such exit signs ]

So someone has to parse the sign to be able to properly enter the information? And I'm still not clear on the benefit of having it separated if the first thing the data consumer does is string it back together.
