Spain
71. No vehicles
No vehicles indicates that vehicles are prohibited from entering the road, street or area beyond the sign. Unlike a one-way no-entry restriction, the prohibition normally applies to traffic approaching from both directions.
The exact road users covered by the restriction can vary between countries. Depending on local law, bicycles, mopeds, animal-drawn vehicles or other road users may also be prohibited. Supplementary signs may provide exceptions for residents, deliveries, cyclists, public transport or other authorised traffic.

Can pedestrians pass a no-vehicles sign?
Usually yes if the prohibition applies only to vehicles or drivers. A separate pedestrian prohibition may be required to prevent pedestrians from entering. Local definitions and supplementary signs must always be checked.
