[Tagging] Combo Weight Bridges

[Peter Wendorff]

Hi James.
Here you see a typical double-sign at a German bridge:

As you can see, the distinction between oneway-traffic and 
two-way-traffic is usual here too.

I assume the upper sign (showing 70/120) shows a tracked vehicle above 
as these often follow slightly higher max-weight restrictions.

AFAIK in Germany this is only common for bridges, and I don't know a 
tagging scheme for OSM yet.

regards
Peter
