There are the council photos, which show the the council's case
is hopeless:

There's basically no way you could lose this: single yellow line
with no kerb blips and a blue badge on display.

Thank you - that's exactly what I thought when he parked it
there...
I suppose, untimely the question is - would the parking
restriction signage (allowed parking in a bus lane only in
specific times during the day) supersede the blue badge parking
on a single yellow line?

No, because there's no kerb blips. With no kerb blips there's no
reason for a blue badge holder to look at the signs.

[member=311]zeezee[/member] formal reps draft:
[indent]
Dear London Borough of Redbridge,
The contravention alleged on the face of the notice is "01 -
Parked in a restricted street during prescribed hours", however
as the CEO's photos will confirm my blue badge was properly
displayed. By virtue of regulation 8(2) of The Local
Authorities' Traffic Orders (Exemptions for Disabled Persons)
(England) Regulations 2000, a properly displayed disabled
person's badge is a complete defence to the contravention
alleged on the face of the penalty charge notice.
Your informal rejection is noted but the contravention alleged
on the face of the penalty charge notice has nothing to do with
bus lanes, and I am only required to deal with the allegation on
the face of the penalty charge notice.
The CEO's photos confirms there are no loading kerb blips at the
location where the vehicle was parked, so the blue badge is a
complete defence to the matter alleged, it follows that the
contravention alleged did not occur and the penalty charge must
be cancelled.
The only real question is whether you wish to cancel it now, or
whether you wish to incur a £25 tribunal fee in order for the
tribunal to direct you to cancel the penalty, however should
this become necessary i will contend it is wholly unreasonable
for you to reject these representations and you should therefore
also pay for my costs.
Yours faithfully,
[/indent]
Again don't forget to take a screenshot of the confirmation
page.

Is there anything additional I can do to convince the council
that they have made a clear mistake in giving the PCN?

No, they've given their response to your formal representations,
and have demanded the full £130, so it is now a total no-brainer
to take them to London Tribunals as the penalty remains the same
and there are no additional costs to pay.

Thank you.
Apart from being allowed to park on a single yellow line
(displaying a blue badge) even in restricted times (via a bus
lane) - what other arguments can he derive from this situation
when drawing up the appeal to the Adj?
