I've just been given a penalty charge notice for using a route restricted to certain vehicles on Townley Road Junction Calton Avenue as there's a bus gate. I must have missed this before and indeed I've driven down there many times without having a fine. Has anyone else been hit by this recently? Has this camera just been added and i've been breaking the law all this time?

The prohibition is only at particular times of day.  Could your previous passages have been at other times?  That said, I do recall seeing what I thought was criminal damage to the camera earlier this year.

I'd try appealing, if I were you. I did (after driving down twice!) and was let off the second PCN. There have been so many PCNs issued there, I suspect they know the placement of the sign isn't clear and I suspect they've cancelled quite a lot  issued to drivers for that area.

    • My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.
    • Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.
    • It hasn't devolved. It's in exactly the same state it was when it started.
    • A&E isn't allowed to turn people away at the triage stage, even people with hiccups and ingrown toenails... the kinds of ailments a GP might be able to advise against seeking emergency care for. https://www.england.nhs.uk/2025/12/aes-under-siege-from-hiccups-and-ingrowing-toenails/
