Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Two wheels on kerb parking rules?

Havering has taken its traffic order map off Traffweb where we could see them.

Who knew? We did and I think most drivers in London know about the off-carriageway ban.
Sorry but beg to differ, I'm afraid, out here in the Essex part of Greater London people have been parking partially on the pavement in unmarked spaces for years.  There are many villages where if everyone started parking four wheels on the road no traffic would get through.

What about where people park two wheels on the verge, how are councils going to paint white lines on the grass.

it would all depend on what the TMO says. clearly there was one (or should have been) as bays and signs were placed. if there has been a change ie the removal of the exemption to allow pavement parking,  this should have been conveyed to motorists by the way of signage placed at the location.

Havering Council usually refuse to release details of TMOs, I have previous experience of this.  As this is in Greater London I guess they would not need a TMO as, I am now aware, the default is that pavement parking is not allowed.  Who knew!

Where are you? It's not allowed in London (for a long time), and recently banned in Scotland.
In Havering so I guess that, for the moment at least, is part of Greater London.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Two wheels on kerb parking rules?
« on: December 13, 2025, 04:29:53 pm »
Can anyone tell me what the default position is regarding parking with two wheels on the kerb?

Background:
For many years most people in our street have been parking outside their own houses with two wheels on the pavement, a few with four wheels on the pavement where it is wide enough.  Say five years ago the local Council painted some lines pn the pavement denoting parking spaces, these are now very faded; no one took any notice and just carried on parking where they always had.

Well more recently I noticed some blue signs near the ends of the road suggesting it was ok to park with two wheels on the pavement.  All of these signs have now gone.

Since then a number of the neighbours have received parking tickets for parking with two wheels on the kerb but not within the aforementioned white lines.

I thought it was fine to park with two wheels on the kerb as long as it didn't block the pavement.

The signage you've shown us looks pretty shoddy and could form the basis of a defence. If you're able to, it would be sensible to get some more photos, showing the route the driver took to reach that parking area, and any signage on the way (or lack thereof!).

Outside of any appeal process, it's also always a good idea to speak to the PALS department at the hospital, to see if they will assist.
In this case PALS are not likely to help as was not visiting Goodmayes Hospital but walking around the sports field and associated woodland.

Back page of PCN now attached.

I cannot see how publishing the date & Time of the alledged infringement is in any way relevent and that would identify me to the parking company.

If you are concerned about sharing details that the public could use to identify you (e.g. name and address), then as per the 'READ THIS FIRST' guide, you can (and indeed should) redact these.
That's fine then, the only things I have redacted are the items which would identify me.

Have received a Parking Charge Notice for parking on Goodmayes Hospital Sports ground which I thought was a safe place to park as there are no parking charge signs.

Parking Charge Notice attached along with some pics of the drive where I parked.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Yellow Box junction - Wanstead High Street
« on: December 05, 2024, 09:37:22 pm »
Situation:
Moving along at say 20 mph when a pedestrian suddenly stepped out onto a pedrestrian crossing with no warning, car in front performed an emergency stop, I stopped (rather suddenly) behind.  However this left me sitting on top of a yellow box junction (with camera).  Is there any way out of this?

This only happened today so now awaiting a PCN in the post.  Can't show exact location as doesn't appear on Google Streetview so assume must be reasonably new.
