Just to update - my appeal was indeed rejected on the basis that I went past the signs. In their rejection letter Redbridge council re-offered the discount for a further 14 days following the rejection. I have now paid the fine. -

@Incandescent Thank you for your reply. I have managed to find a reference to the location of the restriction.https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/4320487"..Permit eligible vehicles to pass through the existing no motor vehicles prohibitions, operating Monday to Friday 7.30am to 10am and 4pm to 7pm, located in Cavendish Avenue outside Valley Court and in Fairlawn Drive at the side of nos. 83 and 85 St. Ronans Crescent."Unfortunately, it looks as though it does indeed start at the signs. Thanks so much for your advice - would have had no idea about what to search. It looks like I am better off paying the fine. Will know to avoid this road completely the next time I am in the area! -

Hi,On 06 JAN 2025 I received a PCN for driving into an area which is restricted to cars between 07:30-10:00.https://imgur.com/Rzcx688I was approaching from Trevor Road and entered Fairlawn Drive. At the Trevor Road end of Fairlawn drive there is a T-Junction sign.
https://imgur.com/UO0AuL8At the bottom of Fairlawn drive, just before it exits onto St Ronans Crescent/Arundel Drive (which is the road I assume the restriction applies to) there are signs illustrating the prohibition.
https://imgur.com/1RZzhl7I drove past the sign, but did not drive past the give way line. Instead, after making sure the road was clear, I reversed back up Fairlawn Drive and onto Trevor Road. In my opinion no offence was committed, as I did not actually enter [what I believe to be] the restricted area. I replied to the council's letter (I had no idea ftla.uk existed prior to today or would have asked for advice prior to replying) but have not heard anything back. This Friday 17th Jan marks the end of the period during which the PCN will be discounted. The letter does not say anything about extending the discounted period while representations are considered. I can just about afford £65; £130 would be a huge hit to my budget.Am I better off just paying the £65?
