I have never come across a cyclepath doing this, but do know of a public footpath that crosses a lock gate. There is a second side barrier on that gate for safety reasons, but it a bit scary getting a dog over. I would map the section over the gates as a footway with bicycle=dismount. That way routers will be deterred from using it and find a more suitable route.
