Thanks, at the time I did feel like it wasnt a drive through zone but because I saw a car ahead and the passenger confirming that it was possible to drive through I went for it. Hopefully someone here can advise on next steps.
Yes, its the sign showing a motorbike symbol above a symbol for a car, hence "Flying Motorbike"
We usually always advise OPs to submit some representations, but on the face of it, what you could say is not much. I'm assuming you missed the two signs at Cambridge Street. If you look on GSV, you'll see the road markings show this as the main road with the street ahead, (Station Parade) narrowed,

Wait a bit to see what others may say but don't miss the deadline for paying or submitting representations.

It looks like you drove in from the Station end, at the junction with Cambridge Street. So you'd have passed the signs on the GSV link I posted. Are you aware of what a 'Flying Motorcycle' sign means ?
I've just googled it - A slang term for a road sign prohibiting motor vehicles??
Ive not come across this before!
What are my options here?
Thanks

Hi @incadescent, It was my first time visitng the area so I dont know it at all. I did however manage to download the video, so Ive uploaded to youtube..you can view here: https://youtu.be/Sjro3A0MKsY
I'd have to go back to the area if you need any recent signage, its around 1 hour away from me.
Thanks
Well, I've tried to look at their video of the alleged contravention, and the response I get is they cannot find the PCN number I typed in despite trying 3 times and checking to make sure the details are correct. Yet the photos on your PCN are frames from this video !
Can you tell us please your route into Station Parade.
Here is GSV 2018 showing the restriction signs ("Flying Motorbike") ar the junction with Cambridge Street.

and here are the signs at the other end, on Ripple Road that runs into Station Parade

As GSV is only up go 2018, the scheme may have been expanded, but only you can confirm if the signs shown on GSV are still there.
Are you new to this area, which has been a PITA for many motorists in the past ?

Hi there,
I recently received a PCN for allegedly driving through a no entry zone which wasn't clear.
I think the location is here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/dJ7FW4pNAdmnfJb38
I have attached the letter received, please advise on what I should do next. Thank you in advance
