Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: PCN Hillingdon- Parked on footpath

Thanks for the response. If I make that representation, do I loose the chance to pay the £70, or is it put on hold pending decision?

You've been whalloped by the London-wide ban on off-carriageway parking in force since the 70s and which needs no signs or lines. Such bans can be enforced elsewhere in the UK but signs are needed to advise of a local ban.

For all PCNs issued by councils and Transport for London under several Acts, the owner of the vehicle has responsibility for payment or appealing PCNs. Having said this, the owner can authorise another person to appeal on his behalf, but if the appeal is lost, responsibility for payment stays with the owner.

All you can really do is submit representations based on your being from Birmingham, and were not familiar with the London ban. Ask for PCN cancellation for this first time offence as a goodwill gesture.

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / PCN Hillingdon- Parked on footpath

Hi everyone,

Background: I’m based in Birmingham, where parking partly on the footpath is quite common on narrow residential roads and is often done as a courtesy to allow traffic to pass. I was driving a family member’s car while visiting Hillingdon.

I parked on St Stephen’s Road, which is fairly narrow, and positioned the car partly on the footway so that other vehicles could get through. The car was only there briefly. When I returned, I found a PCN on the windscreen. There were no parking signs on the road.

After doing some research, I now understand that parking on the footway is an offence that it is enforced much more strictly in london than in other parts of the country.

Is there any point / any grounds to contest this?
If there are grounds to contest; is it contested on my name or the owner (family member's name)

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / PCN Sandwell bus lane - entered at end of bus lane

« on: March 28, 2025, 02:15:59 pm »

Hi Guys. First time posting here so hope I've understood the rules.

There is a bus lane in Sandwell. I did not use this bus lane. I entered it at the end and I got a ticket. I visited the road again and saw the camera right at the end of the bus lane. Is there any chance to appeal this successfully as I clearly wasn't using the bus lane and only entered at the end . Many thanks in advance
