That is the most sensible way to have it.
There has to be _some_ way to distinguish between situations where the
train *must* take a certain route (eg at a junction), and situations
where trains can take *any* route (eg on the approach to a 4-platform
station).
The approach to a station is the most likely time you will want the
train to choose any available route, and likewise, the entrance to a
(terminus) station is the most likely time you will want to have 2-way
track. So it makes perfect sense to have 2-way signals giving that
option to trains.
