Apologies, what info do you need?

Please see the link for two photos which show the current situation;

Please note the yellow sign was not present when my car was towed and as you can the temporary restrictions on the sign are in the future - this yellow sign is attached to the black pole you can see in my PCN.

For each PCN, all the relevant dates (date PCN issued, date you challenged, date council responded, date of subsequent Notice to Owner, date you submitted representations to the NTO, date council rejected your representations).

Please also take photos of all the paperwork and upload here. Only redact your name and address.

OP,IMO QED.

To elaborate:

What was a 4-bay parking place in Apr. 2025 is now 3 bays;
What was bay 2 is now bay 1.
The traffic sign in bay 2 in Apr. 2025 is now in bay 1;
The post which is in the photos of 26 May adjacent to your car is the only post, and it did not carry a traffic sign as can be seen in the council's evidence.

The suspension sign must be sitting on an otherwise blank post.

For info, the nonsense* suspension cannot be placed over a traffic sign, it must sit on an otherwise simple post unless the council have replaced the missing traffic sign since 26 May.

* there aren't '4 paid bays' there are 3 bays, and how is a motorist to know that they're 'paid bays' because there isn't a traffic sign which shows this!!

So it would be a win at London Tribunals, and it is a no-brainer to take them there because you've paid already with the tow payment.
