PCN - Havering Council - 622: Parked with one or more wheels on
or over a footpath
DIR By: pulkitbawa@gmail.com

---------------------------------------------------------
Hi Everyone,
I am writing to seek advice and guidance if possible to overturn
this PCN. I was out to a friends house on Hallowen night
31/10/2023 and the PCN was issued at 20:08. The PCN was put on
my car windscreen, it states that the penalty is given under the
code: 622 stating that the car was parked with one or more
wheels on or over a footpath or any part of a road other than a
carriageway (partly on footway). it was also raining that
evening as well it was dark and gloomy. There is a lamp post
ahead of my car and there was no clear sign showing that I am
unable to park with one wheel over the kerb. I have also checked
the Havering website and there are no video or photograph
evidence been uploaded on the website.
Please see the photo attached of the PCN notice. I have also
attached pictures of the street and the pole.
Google View of the road it is the right side of cambridge avenue
as you enter from Ferguson Road.

You need to get a picture taken from the other side please.
We can see here

that
it was pretty faded 3 years ago, but you need to find out what
it looks like now.

That sign is clear enough to be honest, you can see what it
means. Parking on the pavement is prohibited everywhere in
London unless there are signs specifically telling you that it
is allowed.
I have requested the footway parking resolution, in the meantime
your best bet is to make a plea for discretion to buy time. If
you're lucky, the footway parking resolution might allow footway
parking on the whole street, in which case your would be legally
parked notwithstanding the signs.

Thanks for your time.
How do i request plea for discretion to buy time?
Also the sign is on the other side of the poll. When you park
the pole in front doesnt show anything and also that there is no
evidence of the photograph from the council.
When do you think you will have the footway parking resolution?

You just make a representation asking the council to cancel the
penalty. Write a draft and put it on here for review first.

Yes, but if we get to the tribunal they might produce further
photographs.

Draft below, let me know if that is good enough or light on
details and we need to amend this
Dear Havering Council,
I write to you in regards to the PCN HG21280863, issued on
31/10/2023 at 20:08 at Cambridge Avenue, Romford. We were
visiting our friends to celebrate Halloween and a Birthday
party. It was evening time about 6pm when we reached and it was
raining. I parked my car in front of the pole (evidence
attached) and couldn't see any sign stating that I cannot park
my car with partial wheels on the footpath and rest on the road.
I could see that lot of cars were parked like that and so i
deemed appropriate to park like that. To my horror on my return,
I saw the PCN was attached to the windscreen.
Its my first time that I have received PCN for this offence from
Havering Council and I was unable to check any photographic
evidence on the website showing that what was done was
incorrect. In light of this, i would appreciate if you could
cancel the PCN.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Kind Regards,
Pulkit Bawa

You haven't posted the back of the PCN, but according to the
front, the instructions on submitting a challenge are to be
found there.
Most Councils now offer facility for submitting online. If there
is a character limit and your challenge exceeds it, attach the
challenge as a PDF.
Keep a copy and a screenshot of any acknowledgement/receipt.
