The safest way to achieve this would be to put in

Cycle Only signs on the small entrance.

May I introduce you to some junctions in my ward which lack the odd
spare metre you seem to be thinking of?

If there isn't enough width for a traffic lane and a cycle lane, then
perhaps putting a contraflow cycle lane up it isn't a great idea!

There's room for a traffic lane and a cycle lane alright. What there isn't
room for is a traffic island as well, hence my reference to "a spare
metre".
