Alan,
In the western US, on small rural tracks, often
there is a fence across a road with a gate in it.
(That gate may not be visible on aerial
photos.) The gate usually is not locked, and you
gain acess by opening the gate and walking or
driving through it. The rule is: If the gate was
open, leave it open. If it was closed, leave it
closed. I don't know if that is what you
encountered or where you are mapping, but I have
encountered this many times in the rural US west.

However, if there's no "back way" around the road/fence crossing,
I'd split the road way at the fence and tag the
inaccessible part with "access=no".
(Or, perhaps, "access=private" if the entity who built the fence might
occasionally grant itself access.) >

node should prevent most routing
applications from trying to route through it.
