Comment from rskedgell
You appear to have tagged a section of Vestry Street as foot=no in response to a StreetComplete task asking "Are pedestrians forbidden to walk on this road here?"
I'm trying to find any evidence in Bing Streetside imagery that there really is a (signed) pedestrian prohibition here. I cannot see any TSRGD diagram 625.1 "pedestrians prohibited" signs on the imagery, so do not believe that a prohibition exists. Is this a new signed restriction created by a traffic order more recent than the Bing streetside imagery?
The wiki states that access tags reflect legal access. Subjective opinions about whether it would be pleasant, a good idea, safe, etc. for a particular transport mode are not relevant to legal access.
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:footAs real pedestrian prohibitions on public roads other than those tagged as highway=motorway or motorroad=yes in the UK are quite rare and are always signed, this quest is probably better left disabled.
As adding foot=no broke pedestrian routing between Nile Street and East Road, it has been reversed in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/145183105

Comment from Kim Vandry
I remember this question. It was from AddProhibitedForPedestrians and it was the first time I had seen it. I remember this short stretch of street had no pavement on either side (it's only a short bit surrounding a traffic island) yet it is perfectly passable on foot. I thought I had answered "no" but I guess I did not.
I agree with foot=no is incorrect and thank you for the correction.
