@IncandescentThanks for the reply.
Yep I know satnav can have its problems but just driving around London is already a nightmare even without it and having some guidance to get to my location is needed for me.
My friend doesn't have a car but did warn me after I arrived about the camera's and on how to get out and return again as I stayed 3 days. I think I did see the sign but I had seen 3 before it while trying various routes to actually get there since like you say it is like a fortress to get in without passing these signs. I thought surely they can't block every street and make it impossible to get there and that this last sign was so close to my location that these signs must be for just after my right turn. When driving down here I had seen that Bagley's Lane
https://maps.app.goo.gl/rvEAmR5ttb7XLkG28 was restricted and so when looking at the map the only other way on to Fulmead Street was from Bagley's Lane from the south which I thought would be a restricted road according to the first sign I saw. When in actual fact as my friend told me Bagley's road is split by a barrier now and so Bagley's Lane north is restricted but Bagley's Lane from the south is not!
For someone that does not know the area then it is very confusing.
For the next 3 days when driving in and out I took a specific safe route that my friend told me to get in and out of the fortress, So I did obey the rules from then on once I knew.
The safe route in and out was of course much longer and much slower with lots of stopping on small roads to let cars though as parked cars blocked most of the roads. So if this is to have "clean air" and be more green then it just caused the opposite as my car is running much longer and blocking the roads and traffic for everyone that lives along the "safe" route. I'm guessing the main reason is to make the council money from new drivers.
Is it worth submitting these representations to the council?
