Purpose of road? Explicit signage (again, emergency=designated should be used 
for that)?

Nope. Access may be designated for multiple uses or one use designated and other
allowed. 

Probably the most common case:

highway=path
bicycle=designated
foot=designated
segregated=no
surface=asphalt

for mixed footway and cycleway.

In my experience such roads are often accessible also to normal vehicles, 
just parking is forbidden.

There are also cycleways (bicycle=designated explicit or implicit via 
highway=cycleway)
where some motor vehicles are allowed.
