One way for bicycles only, 2 way for vehicles

1

I'm trying to tag a section of road as one-way, but only for bicycles.

Washington Ave, between its northern end (where it turns into I295 on/off ramps) and the intersection with Eastern Promenade is one-way south only for bicycles. I can't figure out how to properly mark this.

And I also have the opposite question. Nevens St between Concord St and Saunders St is 2-ways for bicycles, and 1-way for vehicles.

"but only for bicycles."

oneway:bicycle=yes

This give oneway direction for bicycles.

"opposite"

oneway:bicycle=no

This give two way direction for bicycles, when oneway=yes is set.

Look at the drawing direction of the wayline. oneway=yes is the forward direction, oneway:bicycle=yes is also forward direction.

There is also oneway:mofa and oneway:moped possible.
