HI

I recently received a PCN for making a U-turn in a prohibited location.

The turn was made on the A10 just after crossing the junction with Broad Lane (to the right) and West Green Road (to the left) – see attached Google Maps link for the exact spot.

It seems that quite recently a new sign was put up there prohibiting U-turns for 140 yards after the junction. Unfortunately, I did not notice it at the time (photo of the sign attached).

My questions are:

Is there any valid basis to challenge this PCN?

Could the fact that the restriction/sign is relatively new and I was not aware of its introduction be a relevant argument?

Does anyone have information on successful challenges or cancellations of a similar PCN at this location?

I have attached the following documents for reference:

Copy of the PCN
Google Maps location link
Photo of the sign
Link to a previous query to TfL about this restriction, along with the official decision document relating to this sign.

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance.

There are "known knowns" which we may never have wished to know. This applies to them. But in the field the idea that there are also "unknown unknowns" doesn't apply as they hide in the aleatoric lottery. I know this is true and need to be prepared knowing the "unknown unknowns" may well apply.
