Its a communication Problem. When i put a foot=no/bicycle=no on a way
i typically put a note there telling why. Sometimes even with a link
to a mapillary image showing the sign.

I have opened a lot of notes about foot/bicycle/access/hgv/psv=no 
because often these are wrong and set just be the "feeling" of the
mapper.

There is no solution than communication on a local level.
