Data team at Mapbox also gone through this issue while trying to improve navigation data in OpenStreetMap. I did some research on the reason for causing this issue and wrote a diary post on this. Would be great to know your views as well in this case.
This is where we tracked our Portland transit lane relation breakage issue for further reference.
We've extracted all the bus routes using this overpass query and we ran then through the Relation Analyzer and we proceeded to fix the ones that are broken. Here's an overview of the ones we found to be broken and were fixed.
Bus relations (the changesets mentioned below are the ones that completed the editing process on the relation):
2 bus relations were skipped because the route was going through a construction zone and the community left a comment on the relations.
Bike relations (the changesets mentioned below are the ones that completed the editing process on the relation):
4 bike relations were skipped because there wasn't enough information to update them. In order to be updated, local knowledge is the best option.
I've sent a message to Greg to ask for further info regarding the relations that we've skipped.
Here are some random observations.

I used either a vim regex pattern that transformed the Osmosis relation members back into an .osm file format or removed the role name if the route was mostly intact.
:'a,'b s/^\([0-9]*\)^I\([0-9]*\)^I\(.\)^I\(.*\)^I.*$/ <member type='way' ref=
'\2' role='' \/>/
The ^I
is a tab character.
The 'a
and 'b
are vim range markers. The markers were required to carefully make the changes in the selected area of the .osm file.
:'a,'b s/'backward'/''/
Note that you also have to make a change to the route in Josm before saving the file or add action='modify'
to the relation tag.
<relation id='4498932' action='modify' timestamp='2017-11-21T14:54:06Z' ...

Greg from Phoenix got in touch through email and OSM message about broken transit relations in Phoenix caused by our road edits. This ticket tracks the fixing effort.
