Thank you, that suggests that the apparent increase in usage since
2012 is due to splitting existing ways. I'll mention this on the wiki
page, since it's not something you can see in the Taginfo numbers.

I thought it might be imported from Tiger, but the usage has increased
gradually since 2012: 60k more ways have been tagged in that time.


If you look at the length, it increased to 10 km in Nov 2011, and to 
132000 km in Nov 2012. Aside from those sudden increases, there has been 
no change in usage.



How are these tags being used?


They're not.


I'm guessing that hgv:national_network=yes means that a road is
designated for heavy trucks to use for long-distance trips.


It means that it has a particular designation for budget purposes with a 
department of the federal government.


If I'm recalling correctly, these tags were invented by NE2 and never 
subject to any discussion, no data consumers use them, and they are 
poorly documented.

 I'm not an expert, but I'd guess it only keeps the street from seeing 
continuous truck traffic even if it is the best route or turnaround (but 
only in California).

hgv=destination is the closest, but I'm not exactly sure how routers 
treat 'destination'.   Some of these look like they carry some 'through 
traffic' in addition to the classic termination at a facility.

Great, that's helpful. So it sounds like this tag is a synonym for
hgv=destination or hgv=yes?

I'm guessing that hgv:national_network=yes means that a road is

Perhaps hgv:national_network=terminal_access means that heavy trucks
can only use a road if their destination is on it, or near it?
