Hi Sara, I'm sure I've got similar photos. From memory Houndsgate & Church Gate are roads with such restrictions. I notice these have recently had the access tag changed from access=no to access=yes: I think the former way more accurately documented the scenario.
Generally, you can do one of three things: assume standard access (no access tag or access=yes) and add specific restrictions, or remove standard access (access=no) and add explicit permissions, or avoid using a standard access tag and use a mix of restrictions and permissions. In Nottingham we tend to do the latter, for instance Friar Lane <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/30596442> is restricted to buses, wheelchair accessible taxis and disabled drivers. All other motor vehicles are not permitted. Bicycles, pedestrians, horses etc are allowed implicitly. Another example is St Peter's Gate <http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/46640041>. I presume most of the streets you are referring to have a reasonable amount of traffic, so although they are signed as "Pedestrian Streets" they should be mapped as highway=unclassified. Some additional comments: - access=no will be rendered with a dashed grey line. - foot and access:foot mean the same thing (same applies for other tags) - current widely available routers may not allow all the settings to be tested.
