Hi Tobias,

why not use foot=use_sidepath and/or sidewalk=no? In combination with 
hw=primary/secondary, routers should be able to work out that that route 
is a bad one.
Also OT the city should declare that tunnel a motorroad, or put up signs 
disallowing pedestrians and bicycle riders (and horses), like opposite 
direction

of your first example.
Also people using routers should apply common sense, too. Or stay at home.
