Bin collections

Residents who are due to have brown bins emptied on Friday 22 November should leave these out for collection as normal. If we are unable to empty your brown bin, we will attempt to return next week. For more information, visit our Missed bins page.

Appeal a Penalty Charge Notice

There are two types of Penalty Charge Notices (PCN) you can appeal against:

parking
bus lane.

An appeal can only be submitted if you have already submitted a challenge and you do not agree with the decision we have given you. You can make an appeal to the independent adjudicator or Traffic Penalty Tribunal. You must do this within 28 days of the date of the Notice of Rejection being served.

Adjudicators are appointed jointly by all relevant local authorities, with the agreement of the Lord Chancellor, and are completely independent. They have a judicial position and should be treated accordingly.

The adjudicators' decision is final and binding on both parties. You can get more information about the enforcement of parking tickets, as well as parking and bus lane regulations for councils in England (outside London) and Wales that are in the Civil Enforcement Scheme by visiting the PATROL website.
