Nodes on ways do have an "inherited" direction (unless they are end nodes) The wiki page https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:traffic_sign says: " You may use traffic_sign:forward <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:forward>=* to specify that this particular sign affects vehicles moving in the same direction as the way, or traffic_sign:backward <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:backward> =* to specify that the opposite direction is affected."
