In theory that's what relations are for, but there doesn't seem to be much renderer support except possibly for bicycle routes even though there are specifications for other types of routes. See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Relation:route I tried marking some sections of Interstate as relations around Memphis once using route=road to try to get co-signed routes to render right in Mapnik (e.g. with separate markers for each route number), but nothing seemed to ever render.
