I found a road today (Knapp Road E3) with a standard T-shaped "No Through
Road" sign, and underneath were the words "Except Access". Every time I
try to figure out what that might mean, my head turns into a Moebius
strip.



Don't know the road myself - is it physically possible to drive in one end
and out of the other? Perhaps it means that you are only permitted to do
this if making a delivery or visiting a resident. Difficult to enforce
though.

Look at it in satellite mode at highest resolution.

It looks as though it should be a through route. If it's not, it must
have been artificially blocked with some of those concrete blocks the
council committee chairman's brother sells (allegedly).
