*If* they're officially designated as different routes, ie different 
names, signage symbols etc. I see no problem with them being mapped as 
separate relations over the same ways, as that was the primary purpose 
of route relations.

But if the local authorities haven't given it a route designation & 
it's  just a path along which different transport modes are permitted 
then I would tag the *ways* as a bridleway & add foot/bicycle=designated?

PS
Are horses allowed along the full route of your example Google 
streetview shows the Northern End as a cycleway.
Is it signed along this road?
