Code 26 primarily reflects legislation designed to stop double parking but enforcement can't really rule out double parking briefly to unload/alight if there are no parking places.

So while the legislation exempts loading and doesn't mention boarding/alighting, the latter is exempted in the London Councils handbook and referenced in some councils' policies, as in Westminster below.

Code 26 of course is now applied to situations such as the current case and IMO in situations not intended for such enforcement by the lawmakers.

In my case the CEO did not see any evidence of boarding/alighting hence instant PCN was issued as per Westminster's policy.

The question is do I amend my appeal to include the exemption for boarding/alighting of passengers or no point?

IMO, you lead with your strongest argument which is that every part of your car was within 50cm of the de facto and de jure 'edge of carriageway', namely the barriers(which Google Street View shows have been in situ for at least 5 years) and in any event you were assisting your ** to alight because *******.
