Barking and Dagenham PCN - Code 62 - Parked with one or more wheels on or over a foothpath - Standfield Road
« on: »
Hello everyone,

I received this PCN for parking on a yellow line on Sunday. I parked partially on the footpath because the road is very narrow, and it wouldn’t have been possible to park only on the yellow line—cars wouldn’t have been able to pass, and other drivers wouldn’t have been able to park in the residents’ bays. I made sure to leave enough space for pedestrians and wheelchair users. On this road, there are also parking bays that cover half of the footpath.

I’m thinking about appealing the PCN on the basis that drivers are allowed to park in the marked bays with two wheels on the footpath, and due to the narrow road it wasn’t possible to park solely on the yellow line. Do I have any chance of winning the appeal?

Please post a GSV link to the location. (the street view page)

Often it's possible successfully to appeal these because the council have passed a resolution to allow off-carriageway parking in the street, but haven't followed this up with an order restricting parking to marked bays.

The parking bays are specified as permit parking but not also for 2-up footway parking.

It means you were not in a marked bay so an adjudicator is likely to say you were in contravention on the footway as there is a London-way ban except where exempted.

But there doesn't appear to be an order for footway bays so they've just painted them there.

There could be a council resolution exempting the whole street from the ban.

That there are bays painted on the footway is in your favour. You ask for a copy of the resolution and the council will either not be able to supply one even though there are bays marked or more likely the resolution allows footway parking for the whole street. If it goes pear shaped and the have the correct resolution the we will have to look at other options
