Is it the City's goal to confuse EVERY driver? They need to understand that one-way streets and blocking off roads is at times convenient for it's Citizens, but super inconvenient for visitors.
Have you ever gotten stuck in one of those residential hoods in Toronto where these measures r in place? I'll take one I'm familiar with -- Rosedale. They have blocked off streets everywhere in this hood, and if you're not walking, you're screwed.
I agree with speed humps, traffic circles, lowering speed limits, bumping out curbs, etc.
But closing off streets is not necessary.
