highway=footway too as you are not allowed to ride on it.
It can still be part of the bicycle route relation, just as a 'non riding' segment.

I'd think the name Eastlink Trail is wrong for this segment  and probably others too. There may be signs with 'Eastlink Trail' on them but that does not mean the segments carry that name but rather the route they form carries that name.

Interesting conundrum Kim. Setting bicycle=no would probably route cyclists onto busy roads and setting bicycle=yes is not legal so use bicycle=dismount instead.

    Hi,

    What is an appropriate set of tags for a bike path you aren't
    allowed to ride on?

    Specifically https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/25313938
    <https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/25313938> has signs saying that
    cycling is prohibited. It is also part of the "EastLink Trail"
    bicycle route.

    Presumably it should have bicycle=dismount, and not the current
    bicycle=designated. I have not received a reply from HighRouleur
    <https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/HighRouleur> as to why it was
    changed in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/88285752
    <https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/88285752>

    Should it be highway=cycleway as it is part of the EastLink Trail,
    or highway=footway as you are not allowed to ride on it, or
    something else?

    Regards,
    Kim
