Hi All,
I received a PCN couple of days back (28/05/19) for a bus lane contravention turning from Whitworth Street onto Oxford Street in Manchester. I didn't notice the signage (which is poor) untill i turn left into oxford street. Also my sat nav took me via this road, i noticed in the cctv image and Google Street View that there is no Red highlighted Bus Lane marking but they marked as Bus gate also spotted one very poor, minimal sign on Whitworth Street approach to junction detection date: 23/05/19 PCN posting: 28/05/19 Contravention: Bus Lane - Oxford Street (Whitworth Street West to Chepstow Street) The Penalty charge of £60.00 must be paid before the end of the period 28 days begining with the date of service of this notice and will be reduced by one half £30.00 if paid before the end of the period 14 days begining with the date of serice of this notice. Can someone please help me where do i start with an appeal? Can anybody point me towards a good letter to help with this? I really have no idea what to do at all. Any help would be appreciated, thank you. https://imgur.com/a/lM09gzm - Copy of the PCN uploaded here. https://imgur.com/a/lM09gzm This post has been edited by Manc1: Fri, 31 May 2019 - 21:56 |

I have received a penalty charge notice that relates to this (alleged offence Oxford Street Whitworth Street West to Chepstow street) The alleged offence date was 06/02/20. I am sure that the signage is as inadequate now as it was when these appeals were going through as I did not see any signage and would not have entered the bus gate if I had. However, I note that discussions and appeals relating to poor signage ceased around March 19. Does anyone know if signage has been improved to a standard that would see appeals turned down? Is it worth me appealing or am I likely to end up paying anyway? Thanx in advance for any advice.

If you want help, please start your own thread and post the PCN, and tell us where you entered the bus lane. A GSV link of the location would be useful. It has been claimed that the signage has been improved and adjudicators now accept it is adequate, but as TPT has no on-line access to their appeal register, it is very difficult to tell what persuaded the adjudicators. Only if OPs post up their appeal result do we get anything back.
