Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Re: Glasgow City Council, Parking Contravention 21 - York Street, Glasgow

When did you park there?

Apologies for leaving out that important detail.

I parked on Sunday the 12th in the evening, which might hurt my case because the suspension began on Monday and I received the PCN today on Tuesday. However, it's important to note that I park in this location because I both work and live nearby, and so I went to check on my bike on Monday the 13th and there were no such notices or cones present.

This is of course not reliable in terms of any appeal on my end, but a friend of mine who parked their motorcycle this morning in the same spot also received the same PCN and stated there were no cones present when they parked this morning (somewhere around 9AM).

I was thinking at a minimum it might be worthwhile asking the council if they can confirm when the notice was erected and the cones put in place?

Civil penalty charge notices (Councils, TFL and so on) / Glasgow City Council, Parking Contravention 21 - York Street, Glasgow

Good evening,

I parked my motorcycle in a designated 'Solo Motorcycles Only' bay on York Street in Glasgow City Centre. Glasgow, amongst other cities in the United Kingdom, offers free of charge motorcycle parking in these designated bays.

I checked my motorcycle today after work and found that I had been issued with a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). Today, on the street, there was a suspension notice and there were cones in the bay. Neither of these were present when I initially parked.

The suspension sign states that it is in place from 08:00 on the 13th of July until 17:00 on the 17th of July. I was issued this notice today, at 14:17 on the 14th of July.

I wish to appeal this with the council on the grounds that neither the suspension notice nor the cones were present when I first parked my motorcycle in this bay. Had I been aware of such a suspension, I would have moved my motorcycle - which I did as soon as I became aware of the suspension (unfortunately after receiving the PCN).

I have added relevant images to a folder on Google Drive, but happy to attach to the post if preferred: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rwd3R1YDvrSHQg3OTcDrfx80ftTaTd3m?usp=sharing

I understand this is a forum operated by volunteers, and I am incredibly grateful for any help that can be given - even if it's to tell me that I'm out of luck. Thank you!
