Lambeth: Parking in Temporarily Suspended Bay Bavent Road Code

Hi,
I am a resident of Lambeth and parked in front of my house (68).
I received a ticket for a temporarily suspended parking bay
notice.
There was signage erected however I could not see as it was on
lamp post down the street or about 20 meters away from the
vehicle.
Do I have a right to appeal the case or is it just a waste of
time?

Please to repost both sides of the unredacted PCN.
The PCN is dated 29th Oct.
Dpo you know what date the suspension sign was erected?
On what date did you park the car?

So, looking at your photos and also GSV, the suspension sign was
mounted on the lamppost that held the parking bay sign :-

However, there is also a bay sign outside No 66 too :-

Did that also have a suspension sign on it ? If it didn't you
can claim the suspension was not correctly signed because you
parked and saw that sign as you walked past it after parking the
car, and there was no suspension sign on it.

Hi,
I've updated the picture with both sides of the unredacted PCN.
Correct there are two signs closer to the vehicle that do not
have signage on that. I've posted the picture.
The sign with the suspended parking is 20 meters away.
Not sure when the sign was put up.

I apologise. I've now updated with Google Drive pictures that
show full information on the PCN.

Ok, so would you have passed one of the signs which had no
suspension sign on it after parking your car ?

Technically I parked right in front of my house so can go
straight in without passing any signs, however if I was to go 5
meter s in either direction I would pass either of the 2 signs
that has no suspension sign. I would have to walk down the
street in the specific direction 20 meters to see the sign.
If I was to walk upward in the other direction I would not pass
any signs with notice.

So here are some suggested reps: -
Dear Sirs
Re PCN <number> dated <dd/mm/yyyy> served at Bavent Road
I deny liability for payment of the above PCN on the grounds
that the contravention did not occur
On the day in question, I arrived at my house on Bavent Road,
parked and went to my house. Neither of the parking bay signs
near my car had any suspension sign attached to them. A
motorist is entitled to take the parking conditions on the bay
sign nearest to his car on the side where parked as valid.
Neither of the signs nearest my car had any temporary suspension
signs on them.
In view of the clear council failure adequately to sign the
suspension, the PCN must be cancelled.
Yours faithfully

Thank you. Do you think I have a decent chance of winning this?
I don't see the downside of not trying to challenge with Lambeth
at least in the first instance as even if I lose I am entitled
to the discounted fee.
The violation should now be visible on the portal, which was
down yesterday.
Thank you.
