Oh, I'd map that as barrier=cycle_barrier without hesitation - it's even made of the archetypal aluminium tubing.
The fact that it's across a road rather than a "path, footway, cycleway or track" is a pretty minor point compared to construction and intent. For prior art see e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2512940470 (visible on Bing at https://www.bing.com/maps?osid=d6b54d2c-03ad-4ada-8b8a-ef341a40ee71&cp=51.498781~-0.092815&lvl=19&dir=120.2292&pi=-6.162716&style=x&mo=z.0&v=2&sV=2&form=S00027 - a bit more ornate, but that's Southwark, and Trinity Church Square is a conservation area). I don't think it matters that pedestrians can bypass it - it still retains its principal function of barring motor vehicles (and, presumably, slowing down cyclists).
