Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Oxlow Lane Dagenham – contravention code 26
« on: June 19, 2025, 09:58:26 pm »
My son has been doing a college placement at Oxlow Lane in Dagenham. The staff all park along a section of wide pavement with all four wheels on the pavement.
This is directly opposite the Oval Practice/Oxlow Lane health Centre. Just leading up to the Eastbrook pub crossroads.
There is no signage to say that you can or cannot park with all four wheels on the pavement. Apparently it's just the "done thing" to park there and he was the only one ticketed.
He has parked along there multiple times and has had no problem until today.
The contravention states:
Parked with one or more wheels on or over a footpath or any part of the road other than the carriageway.
There was a whole row of cars in front of him parked in the exact same way that were not ticketed.
On his evidence photos the only thing I can see is that the section he parked on has double yellow lines in the road.
But the contravention doesn't say anything about the double yellow lines.
I'm wondering whether to and/or how to contest this.
He hasn't parked ON the double yellow lines. They are in the road and he is completely on the pavement.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
This is hopefully a permanent work placement so I don't want to leave it a chance that he may or may not get a ticket every time he goes there.
On his evidence photo you can see a white van in front, that wasn't ticketed, then there is a bus stop, and then all of those cars parked in front of the bus stop were also not ticketed, just my son.
Looking on Google Maps you can see that cars are always parked in this way along that section of the road. He was parked roughly where I've put the yellow cross.
So is it likely to do with the double yellow lines even though the contravention doesn't state that?
Thanks for any advice.
