Hi Dermot,
Yes but...

My testing indicates the later. If there is no other route, mapsource at least, ignores the restriction.
Consider a case where you have a very simple configuration which I shall try to draw in ASCII:
| | | +---------------x-------------o----------- | | |
Let "o" be the bollard and x your destination. For badness, let's also assume that there is only a single way segment between o and the junction at "+".
So now the entire piece of road from junction to x is access=no. Do you think the restriction will be ignored in this case?
Yes, mapsource ignores the restriction.
(maybe this won't matter in the real world, I'm just saying it now in case it could be. I suppose the harder and more correct solution would be to carve off 5m either side of the bollard into separate restricted segments)
I had already considered doing that but it's not worth it unless the real GPS units behave differently from mapsource. Cheers, Mark
