- Pedestrian moves to the edge of the path (their left) to give space to the bicycle. No need to step into the grass
There may be another cart coming from behind the Ped which is why the Ped needs to make some room for the bicycle.
The bicycle may need to cross into the other lane which is why the cart should wait for the bicycle to get beyond the Ped
While this is the logical, courteous, and safe way to manage the situation, it is highly unlikely that all three will actually cooperate.

Some Walkers (two or more abreast) have awful big ego to leave aside. They rarely if ever move over to left falling into single file.
