More penalties from Lewisham Council Leahurst Road
DIR By: HeatherMS

---------------------------------------------------------
I had to look after a friends cat recently as her cattery was
fully booked. I have received 8 x penalties over 4 days, 2 per
day most of them 1 minute apart for entering pedestrian zone
between the school hours of 2.45pm and 3.45pm. I did not see any
notices for this and have driven down these roads in the past
and never had penalties. I can see from this forum it has
happened to others in the past. I appealed and my appeal was
rejected of course! They want 8 x fines of £130 totalling £1040
unless I pay within 14 days and then it will reduce to £520. I
apologised in my appeal saying it was a genuine mistake and if
the signs had been visible I would not have driven down there
and that I had also recently lost my mother and on medication
for my mental health. Is there anything I can do?

It doesn't look good, I'm afraid. Here is the advance sign on
Dermody Road that you drove down to turn right into Leahurst
Road : -

and here are the restriction signs themselves, mounted far too
high in my view but they get away with it, I'm afraid.

You may well have driven along Leahurst Road in the past without
penalty, (1) the restriction has only been there since the GSV
view of September 2022, and (2) you drove down there outside the
restricted times.
What I suggest you do is list here the PCNs and their date, and
date received. Representations have been won in the past based
on the appellant only becoming aware of the restriction on
receiving the first PCN on a certain date, with the others dated
after PCN 1, but not being received until PCN 1 arrived.
There may be other representation and appeal arguments based on
Lewisham mismanagement of the enforcement process, so wait a bit
to see what is suggested.

Please clarify
How many PCNs did you submit reps for?
How many reps have been rejected?
A timeline for each possible contravention and whether you have
received PCN/made reps/received rejection/ would help:
(date entered)(PCN No.) (date of PCN) (date PCN re'd) (date reps
made) (date of NoR) (date NoR rec'd)
You would normally make reps against them all together and ask
for those issued after the 1st but before the 1st was received
to be disregarded, but as you may have gathered, there is
something wrong with this location and its PCNs so wait for the
experts like [member=24]Hippocrates[/member] to comment.

1. This is a disproportionate number of PCNs. At a different
location I got 24 ot of 24 cancelled AFAIR.
2. Please screenshot every PCN payment status on their website
and report back as there may well be a problem.
I advise going to the Tribunal and am happy to represent you.
As above, please fill in the blanks.

As I am directly involved with the 1st PCN, I will now advise
privately re the others. I am considering a JR PAPL.
