In downtown, or some very busy commercial part of city, some streets are forbided any vehicle, like car, bike. Only way to get through is walking.
How do you say it in a word, or short phrase in English?
Thanks.

I was going to say "Sidewalk", but you said it's a street where bikes and cars aren't allowed. So, I looked on google a bit and found something called a "Pedestrian Zone". Hope that helps.

In UK they are called footpaths. Sometimes bridleways..but horses can be rode on in bridleways.
According to the Bedfordshire website(An English County), it is a civil wrong to ride a bicycle or a horse on a public footpath.
The site also mentions that walkers may:
* Take a pram, pushchair or wheelchair, where possible.
* Take a dog as long as on a lead or under close control.

A walk as in Leicester's Pocklington's Walk. Or an Alley. How about a Cutting.

In the UK it would be a 'Pedestrian precinct' this would normally be a square or plaza.
A route between two places would be called a "footpath"

The most common words used in transportation would probably be a pathway or plaza.
