not sure if you are aware of this, in Europe we are mapping those village
limits (with the tag "traffic_sign=city_limit" and sometimes additionally
with name=placename) in order to better track speed limits. We'd typically
put the city_limit sign on the right side of the highway (it is not
intended for automatic data consumers but more a help for human mappers),
and not on the highway, to preserve implicit direction information.

cheers,
Martin
