237SJ, I didn’t specify any particular group. I said “ultra-orthodox men”, and for them it is true. Granted those, both Jews and Muslims, who take their religion to such extremes are few, but for those who do, it is the norm. They will not interact with women who are not members of their family.
Andy, when antiquated requirements encroach into public areas, people are right to question them.

Absolutely - the fault lies entirely with the organisation putting up the posters - they should have made their notices a polite request, and advised exactly why they were making that request.
That said - it is encumbent upon minority sects to make arrangements so that their religious requirements are met at minimum inconvenience to society at large.

Andy, //it is encumbent upon minority sects to make arrangements so that their religious requirements are met at minimum inconvenience to society at large. //
I'd like to rephrase that and say it is incumbent upon all people of religion to make arrangements so that their religious requirements don't inconvenience society at all.

Actually - there seems to be a completely logical explanation to the signs (so detailed in the story itself).
It's just that the signs omitted the detail about the Torah procession.
If the signs had read:
"During the Torah, Jewish women should please walk along this side of the road only" there would have been no story, because (I assume) the Jewish women attending the event would have known about this constraint and followed the guidelines.
Hopefully next year, the signs will be better worded.
