Well done !  I do wonder whether they don't want the issues in your reps to be exposed, so just let the days roll to over 56 days. They'll be making shedloads of money so can afford a few small losses.

So i make that the 20 November?
I suppose i should take that as they've accepted my representation?

Certainly not, you must get it confirmed !.  So you need to (1) check their webpage for the PCN, and (2) contact them to suggest that as you have received no reponse within the legally mandated maximum of 56 days, you assume they have accepted your representations

They have 56 days in which to respond, (accept or reject your reps).

Bristol CAZ PCNs have a fatal flaw in that they use an 0870 number.

SEarch this forum (top RH corner) on 'Bristol CAZ' for other cases with successful reps and post up your proposed draft here before submitting.

Good afternoon,

Can i please have some advice on the following https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjASqgK

First time i've driven around Bristol or an area with a CAZ.
I attempted to enter Cabot Circus carpark without entering the CAZ. (i beleive it can be done?) Unfortunetly, i failed and entered the CAZ for about 50 metres to which it then ended as i entered the Cabot Circus Carpark.

Is Cabot Circus Carpark discussed often, with it straddling the CAZ?
