Is that not a highway=footway, cycleway, path, bridleway?  In any of
those cases, it would be assumed to be motor_vehicle=no. If it was
once a road bridge, it could also be abandoned:highway=unclassified or
whatever. That's how I mapped
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ke9tv/14919563634 - highway=path
foot=yes horse=yes ski=yes bicycle=no snowmobile=no
abandoned:highway=track bridge=yes surface=wood

And by contrast, https://www.flickr.com/photos/ke9tv/14920137133 is
demolished:highway=track while the rubble at the right side of the
image is demolished:man_made=dam highway=path ford=yes et cetera.
Except that I didn't map it, because I didn't attempt the crossing.
I'd already fallen in the [expletive deleted] river once that day, and
that was one time too many.

An unvarnished 'access=no' sounds just plain weird to me - as if
asserting that a way is not a way.
