Entering a street with "no through road sign"

Entering a street with "no through road sign"

Hi folks

If you have entered a street which has the signs of "no through road sign - except cycle" then would it attract penalty. Worth adding that the same street you can use for exiting but how about if you have entered into it in evening times.

No penalty for entering the road, why would there be? The sign just means the road doesn't go anywhere.

Item 5 of Part 2 sign table?

This is advisory only as opposed to No Entry which is regulatory.

Thanks for replies but they have emphasized "except cycle". Doesn't the authority has excuse to portray it as a traffic contravention and levy fine.

Doesn't that just mean that cycles have a way of using this road to get to somewhere else?

seagul,

if this street actually exists, can you provide a Google Street View link so that we can all have a look?

As above, the sign merely warns you that you will have to either reverse or turn round to get out. The "except cycles" advises cyclists that they can get through to somewhere else - probably by means of an alleyway.
