A UK first? An officially-sanctioned 'No Entry Except Cycles' sign!
Road closure with cycle bypasses, Camden.
Looking into Westgate Street.
I think this means No Entry to cyclists between 10:30 am and 4:30 pm, and No Entry to other vehicles at any time.
Crown junction
short contraflow cycle past no entry signs
Location: , Inverness (Scotland, United Kingdom)
New contraflow cycle lane on Great Queen Street, London, with No Entry signs without an exemption for cyclists!
The no entry versus contraflow cycle lanes here are very ambiguous.
Entrance to contraflow cycle lane: a no-entry sign with 'cycle lane' added. Basically a non DfT compliant 'no entry except cycles'.
No Entry Except Cycles, North Walsham

Pedestrian priority!
We need both of these in Cambridge!
Can't remember exactly where in this part of Amsterdam this photo of a No cycling exception sign was taken.
'No entry except bikes and mopeds' - like virtually every street in Basel old town
Sustrans signing, but a No Entry sign without exemption for bikes - Penzance
No Entry sign with "Except Cycles" in Hinckley, Leicestershire.
This comment from the Highways Authority explains...
"The sign was installed in 2003 by our Major Transport Projects team as
part of the Hinckley town centre development s
An illegal 'Except Cyclists' sign?
These were removed and the one-way scheme abandoned within a few months of it starting.
The entrance to Malcolm Street viewed from the other side of Jesus Lane.
It shows the absence of any island dividing the contraflow one way cyclists and motorists coming out of the street.
Exception to one-way street for cyclists and powered two wheelers.
The "Except Cycles" actually applies to the "No right turn" that is on the opposite side of this sign!
Note the small blue sign that allows bikes to legally pass to the right of this bollard. Its very unusual, but it does work.
Note: a cycling campaign leisurely ride was stopped by Police going through this gap in March 2006. The ride lea
Rising bollards, Silver Street, eastbound. Single 'No entry' sign ('Except authorised vehicles') on the central reservation; 'Cycles only' and 'Keep right' signs to the left of the cycle bypass.
Rising bollards, Bridge Street, southbound. Single 'No entry' signs ('Except pedal cycles and authorised buses and taxis') on the approach; single 'No entry' sign ('Except authorised buses and taxis') on the central reservation; 'Cycle lane
Rising bollards. Southbound approach at Emmanuel Road. Pair of 'No entry' signs ('Except pedal cycles & authorised buses & taxis').
Sign pollution - what a horrible mess this is!
Notice the No Entry - with Cyclists Exception which would not be permitted if this was the Highway.
Looking towards Hobson Street from King Street.
This is one of the most explicit examples of a cycle route going directly between two No Entry signs.
The absence of a "cyclists exception " panel underneath the No Entry signs here co
'No entry except cycles - pedestrian priority' - signage we're not allowed in Cambridge?
No entry sign with "bicycles free" sign underneath.
Centre of Nuremberg / Nürnberg, between "Neues Museum" and the main train station.
Cycle contraflow on Lloyd Baker St (at Kings Cross Rd)
Signing of a cycle contraflow on a one way street at Upper Ground
Cycle bypass lane for a cycle contraflow on a one way street at Lambs Conduit in London
Pedestrianised area in old Geneva. A no entry sign excepting cycles reads "Cycles exceptés".
No entry - "bicycles" frei / free. This one way street (for motor traffic) is typical in its car parking layout, which are located in blocks on either side, so that cars have to slow down and "slalom" between them.
No entry sign with a "bicycle road" sign underneath. Bicycles have priority both ways, local motor traffic is allowed, but only in one direction.
The No Entry sign at the north end of Corn Exchance Street has gained a Cycle Route sign. I suspect this is an attempt at producing "No Entry Except Cycles".
Ed: the blue sign is known as diagram 967, see #73568.
Cycle contraflow leading to the Redruth Tesco.
A recently installed (ie in 2008) contraflow cycle lane in Bury St Edmunds leading to a short section of shared space. I thought the size of the traffic island was interesting.
If Bury St Edmunds doesn't feel the need for an island, even when there is oodles of room for one, why does Cambridge?

Here's another example of no entry except cycles.
I'm not sure of the exact location but its near the Fallowfield Loop railway line in Manchester.
Bike Symbol at entry to Bus & Bike only Street, Vine Street, Uxbridge
Off the public highway I believe. Another exception plate to add to the collection.
P1140427
Access route to the Dartford Crossing Control Room, which is where you need to go if you want to head through the Dartford tunnel where your bike will be placed on the back of a jeep and you will be driven through the tunnel.
Amazing! Someone has stopped to unload on Bateman Street without blocking the contraflow cycle lane.
Don't tell DfT.
The use of the "except" cycles plate with a "no entry" sign is clear, unambiguous, widely used in Europe, but not allowed by DfT.
Another way of signing a cycle exemption to a No Entry
No Entry - except trams [but cyclists can cross the tram lines to the right]

No Entry Except Cycles, Grenoble
This is the sort of confusing arrangement we had before the "Except Cycles" sign was permitted. The blue sign doesn't legally prohibit vehicles, but the road marking does say No Entry Except Cycles - so it is ambiguous.
