Thank you Pieren, I didn't think about this page.

The page states that the international default for cycleway is
foot=no. Single countries according to this page where pedestrians are
forbidden on cycleways are:
Austria, France and Germany (Italy is not listed).
and a lot of countries which allow the use for pedestrians if no
alternatives are present. These include Belarus, Belgium, Denmark,
Finland, Hungary, the NL, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Switzerland and
Turkey.

Australia, UK and the USA (probably the other commonwealth countries
as well) generally allow the use.

Cheers,
Martin
