Upon further analysis of empty relations, I suspect they will be far more problematic than I expected. While it is on the wiki since 2010 and feels like a powerful tool, it does not seem to be used (let alone supported by consumers).
My bad, I should not recommend things that I have not used myself. I am curious as to the recommended approach - we have a similar parking zone system here in Prague and I have no idea how to map it. A relation still sounds like a horrible solution due to the parking depending on the side of the road and due to the sheer frequency of road splits due to (for example) added surface tags. Maybe a wikidata tag?
