The problem with the LTN is it stops people driving through the village and also driving from one side of Dulwich to out the other side to go somewhere else. The traffic problem is because all the through traffic is blocked from wide roads like Calton and Court Lane which could be made a major relief route. I don't see why the hairdresser is affected unless people were stopping for a haircut on their way to somewhere else.

Well thanks for the helpful replies those of you who gave them.

Well I saw some similar posts and thought maybe I could get some help. All I get is anti motorist vitriol. I paid a lot of money for a nice car. Amazing deduction, going to tell me my age next??? I pay all my road and fuel taxes, I should be able to park in a designated parking spot. I see people parking on double yellow lines all the time blocking traffic but I come here and find the lycra Mafia out in force cackling with glee over Southwark fleecing another motorist, for parking in a parking spot. You're cyclists I am convinced. At least a few of you were helpful: I suppose I'll have to eat the fine and keep a better lookout for traffic wardens in future.

What's wrong with my name?

The space was very short. I didn't want to block the road so I pulled forwards a lot, and got a fine for being on the pavement. They have made it so there's always something they can use to extract money. I tried to rationally discuss it with the parking warden but he wouldn't budge.

Has anyone had a successful experience challenging a parking fine? Do Southwark ever do the reasonable thing here?
