Council may review parking rules after court defeat

Dec 24 2008 by Joanne Douglas, Huddersfield Daily Examiner

Mr Crapper, of Birchencliffe, was given the parking ticket in August, 2006, after parking in a clearway off Manchester Road.

He contested the ticket and was threatened with the bailiffs.

But after two-and-a- half years the tribunal overturned the £60 fine.

It ruled that there were some exceptions for loading and delivering on a clearway.

Ms Gedman added: “Our legally enforceable traffic regulation orders do not allow exemptions for loading on a clearway.’’
