What is a Solihull Metropolitan restricted street PCN?

A restricted street PCN from Solihull Metropolitan is a penalty charge notice for parking on a yellow line during restricted hours. Single yellow lines have specific restricted hours shown on nearby time plates. Double yellow lines generally restrict parking at all times.

The legal basis for every Solihull Metropolitan yellow line restriction is a traffic management order (TMO) or traffic regulation order (TRO). If the order was not properly made, published, or does not match the signage on the ground, the restriction may be unenforceable.

Signage is one of the most common grounds for challenge. Solihull Metropolitan must display time plates for single yellow lines, and the lines themselves must be correctly marked in accordance with the TMO/TRO. Loading exemptions may also apply unless the restriction specifically prohibits loading.

Parking Mate UK checks your Solihull Metropolitan restricted street PCN against signage requirements, TMO/TRO validity, loading exemption rules, and service timelines. If defects are found, you receive a professional appeal letter for Solihull Metropolitan or Traffic Penalty Tribunal.

Common Solihull Metropolitan restricted street PCN defects

Missing or illegible time plates

Single yellow lines at Solihull Metropolitan locations must have time plates on nearby posts showing the restricted hours. Missing, faded, or illegible time plates can invalidate the PCN.

TMO/TRO validity issues

Solihull Metropolitan must have a valid, correctly made traffic management order for every yellow line restriction. If the order was not properly published or does not match the signage, the restriction may be unenforceable.

Loading exemption

On many Solihull Metropolitan restricted streets, you may stop briefly for loading or unloading unless loading is specifically prohibited. If you were genuinely loading, this is a valid ground.

Line marking defects

Yellow lines must be correctly marked in accordance with the TMO/TRO. Faded, broken, or incorrectly positioned lines can support a challenge.

Incorrect contravention code

Code 01 (parked on restricted street) and code 02 (loading on restricted street) have different requirements. The code must match the actual circumstances.

Successful appeal against a PCN from a car park with poorly worded signs. Premier Park rejected my first appeal, so I went to the ombudsman where it was accepted. Definitely worth the effort.
