  • Smart Parking PCN in Pedestrian Zone

    Hypothetically, can Smart Parking issue a parking charge notice for entering a pedestrian zone on private land? Zone is a changeable one with times on.

    Say someone entered said zone but there was only one sign at entry on the opposite side of the road which had small print but not full terms and conditions (referred to a larger sign within the pedestrian zone) also the penalty charge was too small to see from the entry point and the contact details for the APNR data controller was referenced to the larger T&Cs sign within the restricted zone, would they have grounds and a chance of a successful appeal?

    I can't find any reference to Pedestrian Zones run privately. One last potential issue; the sign on the opposite side of the entry point was actually set back about 20 cms from the entry point. There looks like there used to be a sign on the drivers side but there is only a filled in round hole there now so possibly been knocked over, and removed.

    Any thoughts wold be most appreciated.

      I'd assume entering a Pedestrian Zone when you shouldn't. ANPR monitored so no ticket to RK yet. I'm struggling to see how the driver can be given a Parking Charge Notice for not actually parking.

      Even the entry sign mentions parking.

          Even if it not parking they will issue a notice if they can to earn money

            Do they have to have a sign on both sides of the entry point?
