Yes, this is very common and varies from city to city. Some places, for
example, have a blanket sidewalk cycling restriction is certain parts of
town (e.g. Portland OR downtown), whereas others have more arcane rules
such as "no sidewalk cycling where building directly abut the sidewalk or
where it is posted."

Turn restrictions: I wonder if someone used those to reflect a "no
pedestrian crossing" sign at an intersection?
