       St Barnabas Street 01 - Parked in a restricted street during
       prescribed hours

       hi and merry christmas.

       posting on behalf of a friend.
       they parked at
  HTML https://maps.app.goo.gl/3Rgzm3yJBXcjy79v7?g_st=ipc
       in the bays, the sign says permit holders until 10pm, they
       parked on a single yellow. I have looked around on the area and
       there is not a sign that tells you if you can park at specific
       times on a single yellow.
       the link on the westminster parking page states:
       Sat, 27 Dec 2025 11:57:44 - No Valid Permit or Paid for Parking
       Found
       the pictures given also do not show the permit sign or any other
       sign.
       can this be contested? thanks

       The link to the Westminster website I see from your post repeats
       what it says on the PCN, namely "01 -parked in a restricted
       street during prescribed hours". Any sign on a bay nearby does
       not apply to yellow lines.
       You say he parked on a yellow line but there were no signs
       giving the restricted hours. This means he parked within a
       Controlled Parking Zone where the restricted days and hours are
       shown on sign at the entrance to the zone. A 2-minute look on
       the Westminster website shows he was parked within Zone A2
       Restricted hours are: -
       Mon-Fri 8.30am - 6.30pm
       Sat 8.30am - 1.30pm
       He would have passed these signs: -

       I suggest he traces his route using GSV Street View, and at the
       point where he entered the zone, if the signs are not there he
       has a case.
       Here is the location where he parked: -

       So, the bottom line is the PCN seems to have been correctly
       served, unless the CPZ entry signs on his approach are missing.

       here is the route
  HTML https://imgpile.com/p/4C6TGYS
       the only permit sign that was visible was (51.4905936,
       -0.1494346)
       this sign is quite far from the parking area surely?

       I'm afraid not. Have you looked at the Westminster CPZ map ?
       They are large and whilst the guidance years ago saids they
       should not cover more than a few streets, that has been totally
       ignored for at least 20 years. It's just part of living in
       London. No sign by the yellow line = you are in a CPZ.

       Can we see the original PCN? Also, the date re the price
       increase is wrong.

       the is the only PCN we have.
       and for the date, is it 14 working days - so should be 16/1
       instead of 13/1?

       I would wait for the NtO assuming they reoffer the discount if
       reps. are rejected.
