Hi,
Thank you for reviewing our edit. We have begun categorizing barriers with cycle pathways based on patterns found in OS Open data based on suggestions provided by a few community members in the past.
We agree addition of barrier=yes would be the appropriate tagging in absence of overlays, as we do not have enough information to confirm if it can be accessed by cycles or foot passengers. Hence, I have made the necessary changes in the changeset # 137105918 and retained the barrier as per the obstruction seen in the aerial imageries. 
We will update our internal sops and follow the appropriate editing practices for the future edits. 
Regards,
Deepikja
