Thank you for all the help I really appreciate it. If the roads not on the service schedule would that be grounds for appeal?
If the road isn't mentioned in any traffic order at all, then there are no waiting restrictions and everybody is allowed to park there for as long as they want. The yellow paint has no legal effect if there is no underlying traffic order.
However to know for sure whether an order exists, you'll have to wait for the council to reply to my information request.
In the meantime here's a holding representation you can make:
Dear London Borough of Newham,
When I parked at this location the yellow line markings appeared so broken and faded that I understood this to be a former restriction that was no longer in force. While I accept yellow lines do not need to be in pristine condition, these particular lines are so broken and faded that they appear to relate to a restriction that has long since ceased to have effect.
I therefore contend that the alleged contravention did not occur.
The council will reject this, but at least it will buy us some time. Send the representation online and make sure to keep a screenshot of the confirmation page.
