Please follow the procedure described on:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines

This also includes an outline how a wiki page for the import can look 
like, you can also use other imports as example:

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/Recycling_Import_Norway
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/ItalyFuelStations
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalogue/Address_import_for_Allen_County_Indiana
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Stillwater,_OK_GIS_import

(this list is not meant to imply that these imports are particularly 
well documented or well executed - just examples of common practice)

It is a matter of courtesy to those doing reviews here to provide all 
the necessary information in one place so you don't have to search for 
them all around.  It is also paramount to not mix import documentation 
with documentation of other mapping efforts.

I would suggest to put a particular emphasis on how to handle conflation 
and editing conflicts because obviously there is also a lot of manual 
road mapping happening in the area at the moment.  This makes importing 
data at the same time rather difficult.
