No through road for vehicular traffic
A blue rectangle with a horizontal line and a vertical stem (the universal 'no through' icon). The road ahead doesn't go anywhere — it's a dead-end for cars (though pedestrians and cyclists may continue). Don't enter unless you're visiting an address on this road; turning round at the far end can be awkward in narrow streets.
