I suggest tags highway=proposed and/or highway=construction tags can
be used, depending on what you know and/or see (in that order).
If a section of washed-out road is an "island" that cannot be gotten
to, it might properly be tagged access=no. Ditto for roads that are
still physically extant, but have been essentially "condemned" by,
say a municipality, county road department or state DOT.
In other words, OSM can excel here at exceedingly accurately
describing the state of the road network, right down to any
granularity or level of detail, whether still there and open, still
there but closed, gone but going to be rebuilt, or actually being
rebuilt. There are other combinations, I'm sure: tag appropriately!

If the road is washed out to the point where it is completely gone
(as opposed to only part of it being washed out) and a new road
would have to be rebuilt on a new route, I would just delete the
segment of road that got washed out. The road isn't there now, so it
should be shown as such in OSM.
