Author Topic: Redbrdige - Sydney Road, Barkingside 53j Restriction on Entering a Pedestrian Zone  (Read 30 times)

Hi, I received a PCN from Redbridge council for entering Sydney Road, Barkingside. Been entering this road for years and only realised they had this restriction, and worse I entered just to park on the side to use the cashpoint for the barbers, so I was literally there for only 2 minutes. I have seen some posts on this forum around this one being challenged for the sign. Appreciate any help if there are grounds to challenge or consider it as a very expensive haircut!

The 2nd thread this week where the signs have been placed excessively high up. There is no possible need for the blue sign; it is not a traffic sign, not is there really any need for the camera sign. If these were omitted, the sign could be respositioned lower down, and hence more in a driver's line of sight.

Can you please post a GSV link to the location

This is the GSV link but it's from 2018 so doesn't show the new signs in place:

You're right there, lots of information on the signs, some unnecessary and very high up, how can a driver assess all that in a couple of seconds whilst turning into the road  :(

We need to know if there are any advance warning signs on the main road in either direction. If you can go and have a look and take photos, it will help. Absence of advance signs makes your reps stronger.
