English translation:limited area/limited access area
Explanation:
制限地域 is such a general term in Japanese. More context would be helpful, but there are many translation possibilities here.

制限：limited, restricted
地域：area, region, access area, zone, district, etc.

limited area: ex. The notice may be posted only in the limited (restricted) areas.

limited access area: ex. You may not go into the limited access areas.

restricted area (according to my E>J dictionary): 1) 立入り禁止区域...a term for the US military services, specifically. An off-limit area 2) 自動車速度制限区域 for the UK. 3) restricted area for travelers 4) restricted area in general
