I would not map pavements as footpaths unless there is a significant grass strip between the road and the path - or if the path is a cycle route - any opinion?

Comment from Alex McKee
Well, as a pedestrian I like to know if there's a path to walk on. There's not always. The specific tag - highway:footway or highway:path is something I always wonder about, I used to prefer highway:path as footway was reserved for public footpaths in the early days of OSM.

Another option for pavements (where there isn't a significant area of grass) is a "sidewalk=both/left/right" tag on the road itself. An example mapped like that in Gloucester is Saw Mills End: https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=17&lat=51.864487&lon=-2.21097 .
