I would map them as three ways (warning, ASCII art below):
* |
* |
| * |
| * |
|--x--|
| * |
| * |
The "|" are the two sidewalks, the "*" is the main road.
Way marked with *:
highway=residential (or whatever)
Ways marked with |:
highway=footway
footway=sidewalk
In the example above I've also put a crossing, the "--x--" line. This would be
tagged as:
highway=footway
footway=crossing
crossing=* (depending whether it has traffic lights, is/isn't marked, [..])
For compatibility reasons with the current approach, I'd also tag the "x" node
as:
highway=crossing
The relation is optional, but if you wanted to, you can put the road marked with
"*" into an associatedStreet/street relation (with no role/"street" role), and
the sidewalks ("|") with role "sidewalk".
Kindly,
David
