Reps:
Good afternoon,
The representations were submitted because of a confluence of
factors. It was a heavily raining day. This was also the first
time driving in Cambridge. Approaching from Parker Street there
isn't driver facing signage on the left of the road to forewarn
drivers that the right turn is restricted to buses and cyclists.
There is only a mini roundabout sign. If there is a
restriction turning right into Emmanuel Road then one would
expect this to be displayed with the mini roundabout sign. The
sign on the driver side to go straight from the mini roundabout
was a bike and motor vehicle in a red circle which means no
motor vehicles. Therefore instinctively I turned right.
Given this was the first visit to Cambridge and the poor
visibility due to heavy rain along with poor signage as
mentioned above I request that the PCN be rescinded. I believe
there is a case for improvement of signage when approaching from
Parker Street which I hope the council recognises and addresses
accordingly soon. I note from a FOI submitted to the council
that on one day alone (9 April 2021) there were 163 PCNs issued
as a result of access to Emmanuel Road. This is an incredible
number of PCNs and suggests the points raised in this
representations regarding signage are valid.
Please note I will be left with no other option but to raise
appeal for independent tribunal if these representations do not
result in the PCN being rescinded.
Kind regards,

They say the signage is adequate, so the only way to resolve
this is to take them to TPT. This means risking the full PCN
penalty.
If GSV is up-to-date, please post a link.

I must say, I don't think I've ever seen such a detailed
consideration in a rejection before.

You have rather zealously over-redacted - most importantly, what
is the date of the rejection?

If the entire road is a bus lane then they should have it all in
the same colour as the "Bus Gate" part from the beginning of the
road as driver turns in. It's only when on the road the "Bus
Gate" part with colour becomes apparent at which point driver
doesn't have anywhere to go. Made less visible given the
overcast rainy conditions when PCN was issued.
