About this camera
Westminster City Council lists a fixed enforcement camera at the junction of Bickenhall Street and Baker Street. A PCN from this camera alleges driving past the no entry signs (code 51). It is sent by post to the registered keeper with a photo of the alleged contravention, and you can watch the footage and see the photos on Westminster's appeals website, appeals.westminster.gov.uk, before you decide whether to challenge. Check that the no entry signs were present on both sides and visible, and whether any exemption plate applied to your vehicle. As a London camera, no first-time warning is expected here, and appeals go to London Tribunals, where the moving traffic grounds are narrower than outside London.
First-time warning
London councils are not expected to send first-time warnings for this kind of contravention.
Common grounds at a no entry camera
- Were both no entry signs present and visible? Check exemption plates (e.g. "except cycles", hours).
Camera PCNs must normally be served within 28 days of the date. You can ask the council to let you view the recording, or send stills, free of charge.
Paying within 14 days gets the 50% discount. Challenging first does not stop you paying later, but the discount may not be offered again once it expires, so note the date.
