Bus Lane Charge - Middlewood Road Sheffield - Advice Requested
« on: »
Hi I am looking for advice for driving in a bus lane when I seemingly had no choice as evident from the photographs of the offence, a map that perhaps could evidence that I could have taken an alternative route is not available on the appropriate section of the website, is this a procedural impropriety I could use ?

The link to the my name and address redacted PCN is below

Thanks in advance

There is no requirement for the council to provide any map evidence. Have you looked at their on-line evidence on the council website ?

Here is the legislation and regulations: -

https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukdsi/2022/9780348232752/contents
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2022/71/contents/made
Here is the relevant Statutory Guidance

Please provide a GSV link to the location, and a brief description of your journey that took you along Middlewood Road..

Just scrolled further back on the streetview and can now see the sign I missed, I should have taken the next right turn and assume I've not got a defence  >:(
