Re: Moving Traffic Contraventions in London

Hi everyone, it took the adjudicator a mere 50 seconds to allow
this appeal yesterday. There is now a well established principle
condemning the school streets signage at most of Merton’s 29
sites.
I am keen to make a costs application for this case. The last
one I done was in 2002, so I could use some advice please.
I’m comfortable with proving the Authority have been wholly
unreasonable in this case, but I’m not sure about:
(1) the format of a costs application;
(2) the process (stages).
(3) how to calculate quantum (and recent examples of successful
applications); and
(4) what evidence is needed to prove my losses, bearing in mind
I am representing an appellant that lives at the same address as
me.
Would greatly appreciate any advice.

Start from what Mr Harman said:
A multiplicity of signage is posted at this junction.
It amounts to my mind to signage overload.
I was satisfied for the reasons given by Mr Shirley that the
council's regulatory signage was not compliant with the TSRGD
2016 it in any event being unclear the restriction being
difficult to assimilate given the plethora of information shown
on it.
I was not satisfied against this background that this
contravention had been proved and I allowed the appeal.
I am happy to draft an application but would need more details.

Please see this link as an example, not a specimen:

You need to tweak accordingly to your case.
