ANSWER:
Pedestrian load is applied as pounds per linear foot load and it should be Total load and Conspan distributes this total load to each beam by tributary width factor. The load is analyzed in the same manner as a lane load, loading only those parts of the bridge that would cause maximum moment or shear at each section.
Please see AASHTO article 3.6.1.6 for pedestrian loading info.
