For highways we have highway=construction / construction=* This is mostly used 
for completely new construction, but in the city where I live another mapper 
has used this on some long term reconstruction projects too.

So the most consistent tagging would IMHO be to use railway=construction / 
construction=tram This is not currently rendered on the mapnik layer of the 
main site, but this is rendered dashed with Osmarender.
