Hello, and thanks for contributing.

I've reverted this change since it goes against the 2021 trunk/motorway classification guidelines, which impose additional requirements on what is allowed to be either of those classifications. In this case, the road definitely is controlled-access (i.e. a freeway), but it does not directly connect to any other trunk or motorway. As such, it is not part of the interconnected trunk/motorway network, and shouldn't be that classification. You can read more about the guidelines here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/United_States/2021_Highway_Classification_Guidance

The road already was and still is tagged with expressway=yes, which conveys the upgraded construction. If there are signs that explicitly say that foot and bicycle traffic is prohibited, you may tag the road with foot=no and/or bicycle=no to convey this.
