The road markings should have been kept up to date and there should have been a blue/white 'turn left only ' sign on the opposite kerb at eye level.
The layout is poor, a more ' curved ' kerb on the island would lead drivers to the left although this may have been thought about and decided against because of longer vehicles using the road.
We have one here, you can turn right going east, as we do a lot, but not coming from the opposite way. No reason for the ban...even the police ignore it...the divisional hq is that way. Drivers who obey the sign just go straight ahead and do a U turn round the bollards opposite. Daft!
