Free Traffic Legal Advice

If getting the discount restored was the OP's objective--QED.

I notice they have put new bus lane markings down. I believe that will cause them some difficulty for two reasons:-

1) IIRC the traffic order indicated the bus lane ends at the tip of the island i.e. it doesn't extend into the L/H exit lane. So the new road marking has no validity;

2) The pedestrian crossing should have associated zig zags which would run into the new road marking. However you cannot have a bus lane and zig zags--mutually incompatible.

My biggest gripe is that you could cross the broad white line for access, as with most bus lanes,so if the L/H exit has no restrictions, as above, there should not be any contravention if a vehicle gets close to the island and exits to the left over the white line.

This was the wording of the challenge, submitted 22nd March, based on Incandescent's advice to at the very least go for the reduced rate:

@petrolhead48 forget about the reduced rate, this is virtually guaranteed to be cancelled if you take it all the way. Just wait for the enforcement notice.
