<div dir="ltr">I'm guessing the name may be one of those local names as used on traffic news broadcasts.

That's a bit less of an issue with numbers, but with named junctions it would be good to be able to name them the way bridges can have their separate name (eg <a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=52.59912&mlon=-0.26327#map=19/52.59912/-0.26327">here</a>).

What I was getting at is that it might be a violation of "name is only <br>
the name", based on loose terminology about the type of feature it is.<br>
