This parking sign is displayed on Mansel Road SW19. I received a parking ticket despite displaying a W1 permit, which the sign suggests it is free, on a Thursday late morning. I appealed, and Merton council informed me the signage is clear. After formal appeal at court, the penalty has been cancelled.
I would be interested to see if your readers feel the signage is clear. Myself, my family and friends, have had at least five parking contraventions within Wimbledon - the signs are often not clear, yet this is the first time that I did not pay.
