Parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours
« on: »
Hi,

I was going to go to work. Couldn’t open the chain gate to the car park. So I parked on the street driveway leading to the car park. Received a pcn.  Reason was: Parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours. Address is 21 bath lane, Leicester

Post the PCN with no redactions.

Did you manage to unlock the gate and return to car.

Approx 10am today I tried to open the chain. I couldn’t so I parked the car outside on the driveway. I then went in the building for work.  My colleague came around 1pm and opened the chain.  I then moved my car to the car park.

If you'd gone in to get somebody to release the chain while you waited, you would be in with a chance, but leaving the car there for 3 hours is not going to persuade them to cancel the PCN, and I don't think an adjudicator would either, unless you can explain why it took so long to get the chain released.

So why so long ?

Complete PCN pl and upright.

Zero chance with authority and adjudicator. Someone's failure to move a chain doesn't translate into an obstruction on the footway hindering pedestrians which was also caught by the DYL restriction.

You're looking at technical/procedural lifelines, if any, so we need both sides of the PCN pl.

Another staff member came into work. They opened it appprox 1pm when they started work.

Also my car was on the entrance to the driveway when left outside. Would that help?
