Can you see why these signs are ridiculous?

It’s a cul-de-sac with 12 houses.

Yes but being a cul-de-sac it is always only open for access. It doesn’t go anywhere. So it isn’t closed.

Perhaps they mean that just the left hand side of the road is closed :) I expect the temporary traffic regulations manual [if there is such a thing] has a stipulation about what signs need to be placed whenever a road or part is closed. Just a guess. R-
Young at heart. Slightly older in other parts.

Yes but to say only available for access is daft. What is says in the manual I guess Roger.

Usually the Access Only bit is for those folk living this side of the closure to get to their homes, but in a cul-de-sac it is a tad pointless.

Exactly Rod. It’s always only available for access.
