Newham - 33E use of restricted route
DIR By: ahsan

Hi wizards,
I hope you are well.
I’ve got this ticket couple of weeks ago, my wife had to go to
Newham hospital, on her exit from parking instead of taking
right she took left turn and end up going towards Boundary Lane
where this event happened.
Is there anything which can be done to avoid this ticket?

I had a quick look on GSV, but it's unfortunately not as
up-to-date as one would wish, but it is clear there has been a
buses-only restriction there for some time.
Here is what you see when you approad on Glen Road
HTML https://maps.app.goo.gl/XNGe6v5hSZR3tFHEA
and from Boundary Lane
HTML https://maps.app.goo.gl/6HPqU54TS98wciUy7
As far as I can see, their photos show you emerging from the
bus-only gate towards Boundary Lane roundabout, which fits with
your narrative on your wife turning left instead of right when
leaving the hospital. However the bottom line is she appears to
have completely ignored the Buses Only signs.
The question has to be why she persisted in going the way she
did, when it was not the way she got to the hospital. It would
have been quite easy to do a U-turn, surely ?

You are right and I would’ve taken U turn as well as soon as I
would’ve realised I’m going the wrong way.
She drove to the hospital for the first time alone, she thought
she could carry on and eventually will be able to go round and
come back Prince regent lane.

On the contravention itself, it seems to be made out OK, but
that may not be the end of the matter, but I'm not an expert in
the Act under which your wife's PCN was issued so wait and see
what the others say before paying or submitting representations,
but don't miss any deadlines in the PCN.
Can you please post all of the PCN so we can read the "small
print". Councils often get this wrong.

The PCN looks OK to me. There is a flaw in the actual Act of
Parliament regarding time periods to submit payment and the time
period for submitting representations, and some London councils
have got this wrong and lost at an adjudication but your's looks
OK as far as I can see.

Does anyone else think I can avoid this ticket or I’ll have to
pay?

Of all the councils, this one has virtually solved the puzzle.

I have checked the video and their challenge page which lists
procedural impropriety as a ground. This does not exist in this
legislation.
So, I suggest this.
Dear Newham
I make these formal representations against PCN PN74910
1. The video does not show the vehicle pass any sign facing the
driver.
2. The challenge page on your website states procedural
impropriety as a ground. This is wrong and confusing.
3. Any mitigating circumstances.............
In view of the above, please cancel the PCN

Ok great, I’ll wait today for any other comment and make the
representation later today and see how it goes. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for drafting the representation.
