The reversal is not signalled for passenger train movements, additional signalling would be needed. AIUI reversals can be made under local signaller control, but not on a regualr basis, but I am not an industry professional.
That would make sense - a set of point clips and scotches as a one off (and handsignalling over a shunt signal) - whereas as mentioned a "proper" running signal and facing point locks would do the job.
I recall a similar situation applied at Pf 3 at Shrewsbury where some simple changes made it fully functional.
