I assume a wheelchar lift is vertical and a node.
Routing over lifts would need to take care of node attributes of course, as routing over a vertical way.

A vertical way is represented by a node in a 2D world...
This is what "projection" leads to.

As long as there is no routing software that considers lifts, we will probalby not find a single way to tag this.
But as I am working on one, you can assume that in my solution  vertical routing will have to consider nodes.
