Thanks both - I've popped an email over to the company.  Will let you know if they come back to me.

Easy to contact them and tell them to ask for a review.

Note I've just posted a win at this location on the live case.

Title: Daft adjudication decision
Post by: MrChips on May 24, 2026, 09:50:21 am
Spotted this London Tribunals decision while looking at cases at a specific location to assist a live case on the Council PCN forum.  Managed to source the video too.

How can the adjudicator get it so wrong? I don't know if the appellant has requested a review - is there anything I can do to highlight this clear error to the Tribunal if they haven't as it's less than a week old?

Case Details
Case reference 2260033530
Appellant Siteglass Southern Ltd
Authority Royal Borough of Greenwich
VRM LX22ZXS
PCN Details
PCN GR24436527
Contravention date 27 Nov 2025
Contravention time 09:54:00
Contravention location Blackwall Lane / Meantime Brewery
Penalty amount GBP 160.00
Contravention Entering and stopping in a box junction
Referral date -
Decision Date 19 May 2026
Adjudicator Elaine Vignoli
Appeal decision Appeal refused
Direction Full penalty charge notice amount stated to be paid within 28 days.
Reasons
I am asked to determine an appeal in relation to contravention code “31 - Entering and stopping in a box junction”, on 27 November 2025, at approximately 9:54am on Blackwall Lane/Meantime Brewery.

The Appellant appeals on the basis that the driver was attempting to enter through a gate the other side of the yellow box and had pulled as far off the box as they could, whilst waiting for the gates to be opened. I am afraid that this is not a basis in law to allow for stopping on a box junction. The contravention occurred and the Appellant’s arguments do not alter the liability.

Accordingly, the appeal is refused and the full penalty charge is payable.
