My reading of the wiki [1] indicates that the more specific tag overrides the 
less specific tag. And the transport mode section [2] of that has examples very 
much like those in your question.

So:
access=no
foot=yes

Means that all access other than foot is prohibited.

And:
access=yes
bicycle=no

Means you can walk, drive or ride a horse, etc. but you can’t bicycle.

For what its worth, I just had a question along this same line for a trail in a 
local wilderness park that I edited a year or so ago. All I did was split the 
way and keep the existing tagging (which I agreed with). But apparently the 
Strava app had a problem with the tagging (access=no, foot=designated, 
bicycle=designated), so I guess my reading of the wiki doesn’t match all data 
consumers implementations.

Cheers,

Tod
