PCN Newham London 52m prohibition Royal Albert Way E16 / Gallion

Hi All,
I just received this PCN today that I have failed to comply with
a prohibition on certain types of vehicles(motor vehicles). I
checked the time and date of the event and it was when i picked
up my 17 year old son and his classmates at Gallions
Reach(Heavenly Desserts) during a Ramadan evening. I live in
Newham and have always used that route to go home almost every
Sunday afternoon(Tesco food shopping mainly). I have never seen
that signage of it as restricted to motor vehicles.
It is just second nature for me to use the same route each time
I come from Gallions Reach. I am verty surprised and saddened to
say the least of getting a PCN. Please advise if I can challenge
the PCN and how?
regards,
1Drivesafe

This location is very challengeable, but you must be prepared to
stand your ground and take the council to London Tribunals as
they will never give way, they love the money so much. Several
cases have won at London Tribunals here, but of course you must
risk the full PCN amount.
The signage only appears at the restricted times and at other
times shows a 40 mph speed limit. None of the direction signs
shows anything about the restriction. The council have put up
some signs that say "camera enforcement" but enforcement of what
they don't say.
HOwever, we do have some posting rules on this forum, so please
reaD this and update your thread accordingly

Thank you for your reply Incandescent. I actually went to drive
their that same afternoon I posted this and I asked mywife to
take some photos. The 40mph sign was in place and took the whole
space of the signage. When I played back the event when I
entered the road, I noticed that there were 2 images(one with
the camera symbol and the other was the red circular border(with
the car and motorcycle). So that even made it more hard to spot
as they have squeezed in to signs on the same signage.
Thank you for the link. I will check it out.
Kind regards,
1DriveSafe
