Hello everyone, unfortunately I have got a pan for £80 for parking with wheels partially on pavement.

1. This was at night time, over a single yellow line
2. The only reason I had to park slightly over the pavement was due to the fact the road was narrow so I didn’t want to block cars from being able to enter
3. There was plenty of space for pedestrians to walk on the pavement and I have parked here before and never had any issues at 10pm outside the temple (yes I went to pray hence the reason for parking there)

Is there any way out of this?

Link to street view below: I was parked on right hand side, there are no construction railings now, they been removed.



Images of pcn uploading shortly - the imgur website seems to be not available, is there any alternative I can use? I don’t see the embed image option in my view either.

So why didn't you park in the bay on the other side ? Parking off-carriageway has been an offence in London since the 70s, and requires no signs or lines. Not causing an obstruction is not a valid appeal argument; sorry.

The other bays were taken as it was evening prayer time , so there weren’t any other options unfortunately :-(

You can try asking for discretion saying you had your mother who has restricted mobility with you but even a blue badge doesn't give an exemption for this.

You can also say cars park there like this as it's a narrow road and there is legitimate expectation of allowance for attending the temple.
