Ticket for left turn into Mill Lane

[Ken Figenus]

What's going on with this money grabbing council? Says I performed a prohibited left turn at end of St Mary St into Mill Lane. How else do you get to the Marriott car park? Anyone any thoughts? Cheers.

The only way to access Mill Lane without getting fleeced is from Callaghan Square direction, i.e. under the bridge and turn right.

Turning left into John Lewis car park from Mill Lane also results in a fine - a friend recently hit the jackpot and did both within 60 seconds

HTH.

What's the issue - what have they changed? I did think it a pretty bad design to turn left across the bus lane on your left but you always used to be able to get to the Marriot this way - have to go via Riverside now?

They are such idiots causing additional pollution, 2 x longer journeys and added congestion - was bad enough you couldn't turn left from end of Westgate st and have to long way round to get to Wood St to get to St Mary St.

So im bang to rights for the £35 as there is a brand spanking no left turn sign on bottom end of St Mary St now? Didn't see it if so

When are the council elections up, labour well past their use by date IMO.

Had a word - they said it was no left turn since 2016 unless taxi/bus OR you approach Mill Lane from the Callaghan square direction (FFS), Cameras went in late 2017.

Basically they want to add 2 miles to your journey if you are coming in from Cardiff North. Guess I'll have to cough up - just dont think I'm getting value for money as I wasn't even aware I was pushing my luck as the signs are NOT visible when you commit to the turn.



There is no clear and obvious NO LEFT TURN sign on bottom end of St Mary St (except buses or taxis) is there?
