Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / RBKC, code 21u parked in suspended bay, Stanford Road
« on: Yesterday at 08:43:06 pm »
Hi all,
I received a windscreen PCN (code 21u — parked in a suspended bay) while parked on Stanford Road in RBKC. I haven't made any payment or representations yet. I'd appreciate any advice before I do.
I'm thinking I might just have to chalk it up to experience on this one, but would be happy to hear otherwise. Thanks in advance!
What happened:
I parked on Stanford Road to attend an appointment. When I arrived, I noticed some construction hoardings on the street with a parking suspension notice attached to them. The space I parked in was a few spaces away from these hoardings.
I assumed the suspension applied to the spaces directly in front of the hoardings. I gave the notice a quick read and confirmed that--a car club bay immediately in front was listed as suspended.
What I failed to notice was that the same sign also listed a second suspension for "outside number 3", which turned out to be the space I parked in. Because the sign was physically attached to the hoardings and several spaces away from my bay, I didn't associate it with where I'd parked.
I did pay for the parking via app.

Here's the street view next to the hoardings/number 3. You can see the hoardings in the Street View, but they've been extended out over the pavement now (see pic attached).
