From the warden's perspective
Warden's note
No-return periods in car parks must be clearly signed at the entrance. ANPR systems log entry and exit times automatically. Check the signs — some car parks have no no-return rule.
Common mistakes
Grounds councils sometimes get wrong — worth checking against your PCN and evidence pack.
- No-return rule not signed at entrance
- ANPR time error
- Different section of a large car park
Your rights
If the no-return rule wasn't clearly signed at the entrance, challenge.
