       Barking and Dagenham, Code 62 parked on footpath, 419 Becontree
       Ave.

       1.I received a PCN whilst dropping my son off at the school bus
       stop which was adjacent to where I was parked which is shown
       precisely where the Black Toyota vehicle is parked on the Google
       Maps street link also addressed 419 Becontree Ave. I have parked
       in this location for the past 2 years where the curb is dropped.
       I was surprised at how quickly I had received the ticket as I
       was across the road with the school bus obstructing my view. I
       believe this PCN is incorrect as I am not actually on the
       footpath nor preventing any pedestrians from passing. I wanted
       to know the opinions of the forum and whether I have a case to
       win here.

       It looks like the path has had an additional separator added
       since the GSV photo was taken. I'm assuming you go to this
       location regularly, can you get us an up-to-date shot of the
       layby here please? Particuly interested in that added
       kerbstone-style divider and if the tactile paving is still
       there?

       Correct I go to the location often
       and the GSV is the same.

       If you'd parked on the carriageway the boarding / alighting
       exemption would have likely covered you. A vehicle crossover
       does not interrupt the footpath unfortunately.

       What do you mean by this the footpath is not affected in my
       case.

       If a landowner wants vehicular access, he can apply for a
       vehicle crossover to provide access to a drive or other off-road
       land, and the council will normally install a lowered kerb to
       allow easy access for vehicles. However the fact that this has
       been done does not mean that the part of the pavement in
       question is not still legally the pavement. The fact that it
       might look like a lay-by is irrelevant, you car was parked on
       the pavement.
       To pursue an appeal we'd have to find something else to argue.
