       LB Redbridge 53j - Cleveland Rd, Ilford IG1 Failing to comply wi
       th restriction on vehicles entering pedest zone (camera)

       Hi all,
       Any thoughts on this one, I just didn't see the signs, had
       things going on that day and I'm not familiar with this area at
       this time of day....I know it from years ago when there wasn't
       these restrictions in place. Not trying to make excuses but
       wondered if there were any grounds to make representations.

       Google Street View is two years out of date....
       I can get photos if that is helpful at some point but I think
       the camera footage on Redbridge website is pretty clear too.
       Thanks in advance for any replies

       Signage looks clear and you approached head on.
       Would need to be a technical issue say with PCN to challenge
       this.

       Yes thought so.
       From a previous post I thought someone mentioned that LB
       Redbridge might have made a mistake on making representations -
       that online it was restricted to one representation only, and
       this might be grounds for an appeal if representations were
       turned down initially?

       The plate re term time is proscribed.
       Also, please screenshot the pages you have to jump through to
       make a representation etc and get back. Do not make a
       representation yet please.

       Finally, this lot are trigger happy so  I would wat until the
       last minute within the statutory time to do so.

       This is the second to last page for submitting representations.
       The next one is evidence I presume. I have screenshotted the
       other pages prior to this but there is about 20 screenshots
       maybe too much info.
       It does show you have to read their explanations why they reject
       some example representations. Quite onorous and challenging for
       some people I would imagine (also screen shotted if helpful to
       post on here)

       Thanks for the reply. It doesnt appear to be the hinged variety
       as discussed in the successful appeal you have added. I think
       this is an example of what they are referring to:

       However the successful appeal was with LB Merton not LB
       Redbridge maybe they have different authorised DfT signage?

       These school street signs should be hidden out of enforcement
       periods.
       But I'm not sure this set-up has legs. The term time plates here
       are not regulatory I think and also it's obvious from the video
       that the school is in session.

       I didnt realise the school was in session till I reached the
       speed bump after the signs. Not sure that matters though

       Hi
       The 14 days are up today so I will put in a representation.
       Would something to do with the signage be the way forward here,
       or is there anything else you might suggest?
       Any help with wording would be appreciated
       Thanks again

       14 days isn't relevant as regards reps, it only affects the
       discount.
       The PCN does not say that unsuccessful reps made no later than
       the 14-day period would secure the discount for a further 14
       days.
       Talking of reps, Hippocrates might care to consider weaving this
       into any appeal or reps:
       (8)A penalty charge notice under this section must—
       (a)state—
       .....
       (viii)that the person on whom the notice is served may be
       entitled to make representations under paragraph 1 of Schedule 1
       to this Act;
       IMO, this PCN does not and omits vital information. Instead, it
       invites the recipient to join up dots and reach a conclusion
       which is improper: it should be absolutely clear.
       Schedule 1 to the Act:
       Representations against penalty charge notice
       1(1)Where it appears to a person on whom a penalty charge notice
       has been served under section 4 (Penalty charges for road
       traffic contraventions) of this Act (in this Schedule referred
       to as “the recipient”) that one or other of the grounds
       mentioned in sub-paragraph (4) below is satisfied, he may make
       representations to that effect to the enforcing authority.
       ....
       (3)The enforcing authority may disregard any such
       representations which are received by them after the end of the
       period of 28 days beginning with the date on which the penalty
       charge notice in question was served.
       (3) is not in the PCN. Instead they invite the recipient to join
       up these dots:
       From the PCN:
       .....
       (v)that, if the penalty charge is not paid before the end of the
       28 day period, an increased charge may be payable;
       (vi)the amount of the increased charge;
       Which means what?
       That the recipient cannot make reps after the 28-day period as
       if issuing a CC draws a line under matters? If so, it is
       non-compliant.
       A recipient MUST BE TOLD that they may make reps at any time,
       but that if made after the 28-day period these MAY be
       disregarded.
       For regular posters, IMO this is a safety net equivalent to an
       OOT SD or late appeal to the adjudicator i.e reasons for
       lateness.
       There might be 1000 reasons why reps are made late and which,
       when the reason is presented to the authority, obliges them, by
       virtue of their public law duty, to act fairly and consider.
       This doesn't bear upon the substance of reps, but simply the
       reasons for lateness.
       This PCN doesn't convey this info...other than possibly to those
       steeped in road traffic law(or, in the case of this council,
       folklore) because it's what we know it's supposed to say and
       only join up dots leading to this end.
