Title: Re: Council PCN appeal rejected for parking on non adopted private road

Am I right to assume, based on the TRO map, that they should not have issued me a PCN?

IMO, yes.

However, the Trafweb disclaimer includes the following:

but it is the order documents themselves that provide the legal basis by which regulatory measures on the highway are enforced.

Neither we nor you have seen the Order.

Yes I am the registered keeper and the log book is in my name.

The rejection fails to address the detail in your challenge, which looks to be on solid ground, so I would wait for the NTO.

Are you the registered keeper and is the logbook address correct.

Hi guys,

I have received a penalty charge notice on a private non public highway, the CEO's never issue tickets here but recently one guy issued a PCN on this road. I appealed to the Council providing evidence from the Councils own GIS mapping data and they still rejected it. The street is called Payne Close but there is a small road that spurs off from Payne close (still called Payne Close) which is private. You can see this on the GIS map on the bottom left

The road does have a single yellow line which I don't know should actually even be there or not or whether it even matters in this case.

I have also been sent a link to the Barking & Dagenham TRO from an MSE forum member showing that where I was parked, the line with the restriction ends just before it, see attached. I haven't sent that with my informal appeal as I hadn't seen this.

Any advice regarding this

See attached appeal, supporting evidence and response.
