The Flame Pit / Re: Access restrictions to stop rat running
« on: January 07, 2026, 11:55:24 am »
It's bound to have flaws. Impossible to get the perfect set up.
I'd expect the council to be lenient to resident appeals or resident supported appeals.
School run pickup/drop off by family friends is probably most at risk.

Some have suggested leaving by the point you entered. I don't think Redbridge will be that clever.

If the queue to leave is long enough it won't trigger a PCN.

Overall a decent reduction in rat runners and leniency to residents is the best outcome.
20mph and road humps due soon 😬

The Flame Pit / Access restrictions to stop rat running
« on: January 05, 2026, 01:22:31 pm »
Local estate in Redbridge has new access restrictions to stop rat runners during peak hours.

They are setting an (as yet) undefined time threshold to enter and leave the estate. ANPR at each of 3 entry/exit points.

Already have delivery drivers refusing to enter during restricted hours 🙄

Residents already getting buyers remorse, mostly through dreaming up unrealistic scenarios.

Is there a standard approach to appealing this type of access restrictions?

Apologies, I didn't realise the significance of the LBA/LOC, or that they are the same thing.

It is from Moorside Legal.
It contains no details of the claim, just mentions PCM as their client, the VRM and refers to an unpaid invoice.

The 100% success rate continues.

Had an email from APCOA that says after 'careful consideration' they have cancelled the PCN

many thanks as always.

Many thanks 🙏

I'll submit that and see what happens.

I can handle debt collectors letters if they don't cancel.

Private parking tickets / APCOA - Stansted Airport Drop Off PCN
« on: July 25, 2025, 12:15:39 pm »
Knew this was coming. No barrier. Nowhere to stop at the time to pay online. No passenger to make the payment. Age related forgetfulness. The driver remembered after the 'midnight next day' deadline. no way to pay by then.

Am I right in thinking APCOA don't pursue these? Is an appeal still worthwhile?

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Help: TFL Blackwall and Silvertown Tunnels Charging PCN
« on: May 30, 2025, 11:32:32 pm »
I know 3 people who have been caught out by the new charges. One narrowly managed to pay within the 3 days, only because we were discussing the other two and he realised he'd been through the tunnel. Saved him £90!

They all said they didn't see signs. Haven't been through the Blackwall Tunnel for at least 18 months so haven't seen it for myself.

Thanks for the help and input, really useful! Here's a draft response which I'd appreciate feedback on or if there are any big tweaks to consider:

I am writing to formally contest Penalty Charge Notice issued on 10 March 2025 at High Street (WD). I believe this penalty is invalid for the following reasons:

Who do you intend to send that to? I'm confused.
Because the deadline for representations was back in mid-April?

Unless I've missed a rejection somewhere? In whih case, if you want to pursue this, you need to register an appeal at London ribunals.

As DR600 said, this box and other(s have since been removed. I heard due to councillor pressure.
Perhaps Redbridge will not contest an appeal.

Yes definitely councillor pressure after concerns raised by Wanstead residents. Two box junctions removed, including this one which caused safety issues at the adjacent pedestrian crossing.
Apparently Redbridge will not contest appeals.
Best to go through with reps/appeals to ensure Redbridge do the right thing.
Talk of refunds for paid PCNs but I doubt that will happen.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Waltham Forest, code 31 entering/stopping box junction, yellow box, High Road/Bush Road E11

No one has mentioned a key part of the regulations.

TSRGD says:

'Part 6 conveys the prohibition that a person MUST NOT CAUSE A VEHICLE TO ENTER the box junction so that the vehicle has to stop within the box junction due to the presence of stationary vehicles.'

Surely the adjudicator is going to look carefully at the footage when the OP enters the box junction. Then what happens to prevent exit.

The anticipated rejection has arrived. My mate is still prepared to see this through. I've warned him to expect debt collectors letters and court action.

Is there any need to do anything until receiving a letter before action, or court papers?

I've got time to waste. Too much according to the wife.
I'm happy to give them some work.

When it gets to the serious bit we will certainly be following your advice to the letter.
