Specific grounds of appeal for this contravention

1.The Road side signage must state clearly that you are not allowed to return within a period of one hour. The rules usually apply not just to the parking space in which you are parked, but that particular row of uninterrupted bays. It is not usually an offence however to park for the maximum time allowed in a bay and then re-park your car on the other side of the road or in a separate row of bays. The signs must also be clear and at regular intervals. please see below.

Below we show diagrams of the signs which must be in situ by law and much more information that will help you decide whether to appeal against your penalty charge notice.

We have even summarised adjudicator's decisions where motorists have won.
