Since you mentioned time signature, I assume this measure has the time
signature, then I will remove everything to be clear this is still the
part of the previous measure.  On the other hand, when I had to do this
for John Zone, I simply reduced the staff size to make the measure fit. 
I also have done with bigger page for that page because it was only one
measure thing.  I used 11/17 and fold it in half.  Basically I don't
like splitting measure.

When time signature is not involved, I simply use dotted bar line at the
beginning.
