I have uploaded the full PCN and CCTV.
I was travelling from Twickenham to IKEA Wembley and was unfamiliar with the area. I was proceeding straight ahead and did not knowingly enter a restricted zone.
My concern is that by the time the restriction signs became apparent, a motorist unfamiliar with the area would need to identify the sign, read the time plate, determine whether the restriction was active, and then decide whether to continue or divert. The restriction appears to apply only to a specific section of Mansell Road rather than the entire road.
The CCTV still image makes the signs appear obvious in isolation. However, my concern arises from the actual approach to the restriction. I was travelling straight ahead along a relatively long stretch of road and did not encounter the restriction from a position where I would naturally have paused or stopped. My concern is whether a motorist approaching in that manner is given sufficient opportunity to recognise, understand and react to the restriction before becoming committed to the route.
Is there any argument regarding signage, the location description ("Mansell Road Greenford (2) (U)"), or any defect in the PCN wording?
I have reviewed the footage and do not dispute that my vehicle entered the zone. My question is whether there are any viable legal or technical grounds of appeal.
