Parking ticket - some friendly advice required

[dickturpin]

Paul, have you been back to the location? You refer to it being a restricted street....in that case the signs would be at the start of the street or the entry to the zone if more than one street is covered by the restriction.
The broken lines are the result of the utility trench but I believe most recent adjudications are not supporting occasional breaks in the lines like these....to the average motorists these are clearly double yellow lines.
You may get lucky if you fight it but I wouldn't be optimistic.
