Re: PCN - failing to comply with no entry restriction

It does seem really stupid that they have put these new signs up
barring entry, but the parking zone signs with times are still
there !
From TSRGD:
"controlled parking zone”
.....
(a)
an area—
(i)
in which every part of every road is subject to a prohibition
indicated by single or double yellow lines or single or double
yellow kerb markings ..blah blah
AND
(ii)
into which each entrance for vehicular traffic has been
indicated by the sign provided for at item 1 or 3 of the sign
table in Part 3 of Schedule 5
This isn't an 'entrance for vehicluar traffic' because the 'No
entry' sign means:
No entry for vehicular traffic!
I was misled. I noticed numerous signs, in particular the
Controlled Parking Zone sign which, until recently, was placed
to mark a vehicle entrance into the zone.
However, having viewed the council's video it is obvious that
either this sign should have been removed or that the 'No entry
for vehicular traffic' sign has been misplaced. As I understand
it, these mutually contradictory signs are still in place.
Clearly, whether the location is or is not an entrance for
vehicular traffic is still debatable and will remain so until
the council removes whichever sign(s) should not be present.
Is my take.
