The actual way routes progress along often have their own,

<div>Yes, the way name tag should be the most local trail
name. However, sometimes there is no local trail name and
the long distance route name is the only name. In this case
putting the long distance route name on the ways also makes
sense.<br>

No, because in your example the way has no name. The name of the
route is not the name of the way it travels along. <br>
Keep routes within relations. Don't duplicate route names onto ways
as duplication always leads to errors where only one name is
updated.<br>
