Red Route on: January 16, 2025, 05:37:14 pm #1 Does anyone know if I can get out of this. I got fine for single red line parking in Islington on New Year's day. I thought it was Sunday rules on bank holiday re parking. Obviously everyone else did cause it was full of parked cars on Upper Street at 3pm 😢 Logged

Re: Red Route Reply #2 on: January 16, 2025, 05:58:46 pm #3 I think this belongs in Civil Penalty Charge Notices and I've asked a mod to move.Assuming you have not paid this (paying closes the case), for meaningful advice please have a read ofhttps://www.ftla.uk/civil-penalty-charge-notices-(councils-tfl-and-so-on)/read-this-first-before-posting-your-case!-this-section-is-for-council-tfl-dartme/and post all sides of the PCN (only redact yr name & address) and a GSV link to the location.

Re: Red Route Reply #3 on: January 16, 2025, 06:26:02 pm #4 it does say no stopping Monday to Friday except loading between 10am and 4pm. How do they know I wasn't loading? Any way - it seems now I've looked it up that Christmas Day is exempt but no other day throughout the year orher than Sundays . Unless anyone knows different? Logged
Re: Red Route Reply #4 on: January 16, 2025, 07:26:47 pm #5 As far as I know, Christmas Day is a 'dies non', i.e excluded from parking regs and enforcement. But this being England, with its greedy councils, and CEOs probably wanting a bit of overtime, New Years Day is not. Logged
