"usage is officially discouraged (e.g., HGVs on narrow but passable lanes). Only if marked by a traffic sign (subjective otherwise)."

It is tempting to tag them as "hgv=destination" but that doesn't cover the case where you are allowed to follow that route for many miles and make several turnoffs IF you "need access". The current definition of "access=destination" doesn't allow routers to distinguish between truly "first/last segment only" and "its fine if you are going to/from this general area".

AFAIK this awaits solution, at least I am not aware about even a tag proposal.
