Summer holidays in a week or so-am I right in thinking this is suspended for their  duration?

I wouldn't make any such assumptions with this council.

The signs say nothing about term time as far as I can see so yeah, the council would then stand to make money from fines related to restrictions that were put in to deal with school term-related concerns. Perhaps Southwark has a department of “and they wonder why they don’t like or trust us”?

Good news! I asked Southwark and this is reply

 

Good morning,

The restrictions are only enforced during term times. If you receive any tickets in error during the school holidays, please let us know.

Kind regards,

Tobias Allen

Well the TMO states term time only as does the Southwark schools streets page. I’m generally fairly down on Southwark but I doubt they’d do something so cynically unlawful. 
 

I agree the closures are badly placed and will trap traffic. In the consultation and directly to the highways team (copying my local councillors) I suggested bringing the closure back to the corner of Nutbrook or at least advanced warning signs further up Adys and Nutbrook. Unfortunately I was ignored. 

Just to add that fines are being implemented in the summer holidays as well, contrary to the information provided by the council earlier. Maybe it is possible to challenge them?

Hi, I just wondered what people's thoughts are on appealing PCNs? I always remember to check the time when I am driving down i.e. from Oglander road towards Crystal Palace Road but I just forgot when going back home the other way - it was only just 2 mins after 3pm.

On the one hand I get it, them's the rules, just shut up and pay the fine. On the other hand, why should I pay £65 to the council to keep a road clear that didn't even have any children on it or any parents or any sign of activity? It was totally deserted so why do I have to pay soooooo much for the privilege of driving down it?!  

Don't mean to start a big debate, just looking for some thoughts on whether it is worth appealing and if so what to say?!

Thanks

Bad parking, 3 point turns in front of the school, aggressive behavior, kids literally being hit by cars, before the restrictions were introduced, is the reason why.
