About a month ago I parked on single yellow lines.

However highway code states that signs must display specific times. On this road there was no signs. (am i right here?)

they replied to my appeal and they said they will not cancel. All the letter says

1. 'PCN for parking on a single yellow line at a time you were not allowed' (there were no times shown anywhere on the street)
2. single yellow lines mean no parking except to load and unload. (no it doesnt, there is a different sign and road marking for this https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/560...
3. they say there were 'controlled zone signs' however on the specific street there was no signs at both ends?

Which city is the CPZ in? I bet they have a map that shows you the entry/exit boundaries.

I had this in Fulham, London. They gave me a ticket AND towed me away £260 in all to get the car back. Appealed through both their systems as the paperwork says they have to allow 30 mins before towing but they replied on the appeal "Oh that is just a guidline". I am still considering a small claims court.

It was a year or so ago and within one of their bullsh#t 'Controlled Zones' and a single yellow after 1800/1900. It is a farce. How you are supposed to know if you are still in a zone even if you spot the sign when you drive into it. You could easily miss the sign on the way out and a single yellow that was not blocking anyone in.

Right up there next to the scamera vans. Just revenue generation. How much does it cost to mark a single yellow with a sign - ???

its really funny, every road in the area has a yellow line, with a sign all differing times

I love parking in H&F on yellow lines when taking mum out and about. She has a blue badge.

My brothers car was towed from a yellow line outside Hammersmith hospital on a Sunday ffs

which heading of that link should I look in?

and no leeds, so close.

I didnt see the CPZ sign on the route I took.

Its funny have other streets a stone throw away have time signs

This is the currently the definitive case on CPZ signage, and includes all the relevant parts of the TSRGD that cover it - http://www.davidmarq.com/bama/Cukier-v-Barnet.doc

It may also be helpful to have a look at the original decision. Search the Statutory Register here - https://londontribunals.org.uk/

It's possible that it could be argued further an in more depth, but with Local Authority tickets being £35 at the discounted rate, many, myself included prefer to pay it and make it go away.

That's always an option.

Btw, it's quite a bit more than £35 in London which was the location for the Cukier case.
