I would use highway=footway, as pedestrian I see for ways that are
broad like streets. It depends also on the context how to tag this, as
this not clear from just seeing the picture (is there a bollard at the
beginning, is it possible to use it to shortcut or does it serve just
to access the adjacent houses. Are the motorbikes legally there or are
they abusive, is the alley private or public, etc.)
