note that OsmAnd doesn't do any time dependent routing, or at it least it
didn't do it for a very long time.

might work to some extent but I see it as important deficit that the directionality
of the road isn't modelled.. sooner or later it will cause disaster. Imagine routers
to issue commands like "turn around and follow the road in opposite direction" when the
diver missed an exit for example.
Also, just one single entry point that someone has forgotten to tag with a barrier
or has the wrong time information and the router will send kamikaze drivers in the wrong
direction into the expressway.
My thought would be to have a variable time dependent number of lanes in each
direction.
Or "oneway" with conditional restrictions
