A dyke which also carries a road, railway.
These objects cannot be tagged with both highway=*/railway=* in combination with man_made=dyke, because of the OSM policy "one feature, one OSM element".
How to map
Draw a way and apply the correct highway=* or railway=* tag. If the embankment is a dyke, the use embankment=dyke, otherwise use embankment=yes.
Alternative
If there is no road/path or railway on top of the dyke, then use man_made=dyke, instead. Also the line of the dyke should be drawn on the top of the dyke. If the road and the top of the dyke are at different locations, tag them separately.
