TFL - 46: stopped where prohibited on red route - Harben Parade,
Finchley Road NW3
By: robincatto Date: January 20, 2026, 6:37 am
---------------------------------------------------------
I parked in Harben Parade NW3 at 1207 on Thursday 8/1/26 to
deliver one pair of glasses and collect one other pair from
Vision Express.
I assumed it was OK to park briefly because the red route sign
said loading was permitted between 7am-4pm. I am now being asked
for evidence which I don't have.
I might be able to get Vison Express to provide confirmation
that I was delivering and collecting.
Here's the link to the images of the correspondence:

Thank you in advance for your help!

Were you engaged in commercial delivery work, or was this just a
private exchange ? The restriction allows loading but delivering
and collecting a pair of specs hardly counts as loading, but you
might get waway with it if you were a delivery driver.

No it was a pair of glasses in and a pair of glasses out and I
was driving a Smart car.

Well, I don't think you'd convince an adjudicator that you were
engaged in loading, but see what others say.

I think I'll just pay this one unless anyone thinks I stand a
chance of getting them to let me off?

Oh dear Robin and after the triumph with the suspended bay.
I can't see much here but you can try a challenge just saying
you were picking up preordered medical goods* or such like and
you believe you were using the bay for its indeed purpose for
local shops there. .

Thank you!
Yes, what a comedown after the other victory.
I will do as you have suggested.
