Sorry guys, but I agree that it’s very clear and self explanatory.
No vehicles at any time EXCEPT busses between those times, and unloading between those times.
Not rocket science is it.
BUT, I also agree that if you were delivering there, you’d be trying to read that, check the time and keep an eye out for other traffic, pedestrians and the dreaded cyclists at the same time 
Bloody road doesn’t look big enough to get down anyway.

Got my post slightly wrong, big enough to hold my hands up, it’s motor vehicles prohibited 24/7 except for the exceptions qualified on the plate underneath
Although it does mean that, it isn’t what the council wanted to put across in the sign, the road had always been restricted but between 0800 and 1800 with loading between 1000 and 1600, outside those times any one could use it, they still can “legally” between 1900 and 0700 even though the sign says they can’t.
It’s a bit of a contreversial set up to fix a problem of the road being used as a rat run during the restrictions, now it’s monitored by ANPR and fines are now issued.
Our local council has netted close to £1 million since it was changed to this set up, and about £1.4 million on another restricted access road with dodgy signage, google lendal bridge york.
I just wanted a professional drivers opinion of what they thought the sign would mean to them when faced with it.
nick2008:
The road sign alone means NO vehicles that would be at ANY TIME
The additional signage I would say means BUS and taxi only between the hours of 7am and 7pm loading only between the hours of 10am and 4pm
so between the hours of 7PM and 7AM NO VEHICLES permitted

Ovlov is correct. The council are enjoying the revenue otherwise they would change it.
You should of put all that in your original post weeto, you just took unnecessary flak for not knowing basic road signs lol. Didn’t realise it was all about a council scam

You didn’t need to know what the council is upto, it was a simple question regarding a sign post and what peoples interpretation of that sign was.

I would tip there between 10 and 4.
Doesn’t say you can tip, says you can load though.

I never understand the 7.5t signs which say ‘except for loading’…you know theres only one place down that street and you are tipping there…I just drive down there anyway.

I never said the sign permitted it. I said if I was faced by that arseache to tip. I would be doing it between 10 and 4.
Tbh I’d probably tip about. 5 minutes after I got there regardless if the time. They either want the product or they don’t

Being a tipper driver mate, I thought you’d just plough on through regardless and knock the sign over with your mirrors 
I’m not a tipper driver any more.
I will be again soon though most likely

I concluded that was what it was supposed to mean as it seemed highly unlikely local buses would be excluded at one time and not another and if they were would have a bus in a red circle. I would have actually read it as no loading 7am-10am and 4pm-7pm ie rush hour.
It would make it clearer if the ‘except local buses and taxis’ was taken off and put on a separate sign of its own mounted further down.
