[Travel] ULEZ Booooooooooo

[PILTDOWN MAN]

So not only was it the most pissed off I've been for years at the Spurs game, today I got fine through the post for entering the ULEZ money making area.

Straight off the North Circular you're in the zone so I found out. Here's the tiny sign you are supposed to see when coming off the roundabout and taking the inside lane of the dual-carriage way. The sign is located on the other side of the road and nothing else indicating you have to now pay. I parked only a few 100 yards further on in a person's driveway (paid for).

Horrible place, horrible team, horrible fans, 1978 we never forget arrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhhhh!

Sounds like you should be having a word with the person who sold you their drive, surely they pointed this fact out to you?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I blame Southampton and Spurs for planning this.

On the plus side you found the only camera that actually works in that neighbourhood.

Too right

Your fault for not having a more expensive car. London welcomes richer people................................

It has nothing to do with the car’s value but I’m sure you are aware of that really.

Seen various estimates from 10k-40k deaths per annum. Why can't the wokerati just suck it up?

Yes. I would love it if Brighton and Hove implemented something like this

You can park in the North Street multi storey for 15 minutes for the same amount

I've been very careful in checking my route to my Wembley parking spot to make sure I don't stray inside the A406 at all as my old jalopy falls foul of the ULEZ rules.

Be careful who you vote for in the up and coming local elections in B&H then - the Greens want to introduce one in Brighton. Obviously it goes without saying you shouldn't vote for the foggy twat standing in Hangleton and Knoll for the Tories either.

Strange, I thought this was a thread on travel.
Yet here I am wondering why there is a post belittling my chosen political party

Where's the belittling? Just see a factual statement about the Greens (they want to introduce a ULEZ) and a rude comment about an individual who happens to be a Tory candidate (foggy twat).

Doesn’t matter what your political leanings are it’s guaranteed that someone will belittle them on NSC

Is an ULEZ possibly being introduced in B&H about travel then ? And is it not the Greens proposing it ?

Didn't say I'm against it but having clear signage like the congestion charge area would be a benefit. The lack of signage has nothing to do with saving lives it's purely to fine people.

If an ulez was introduced to Brighton and included all Brighton, how would that affect people coming from elsewhere in Sussex and beyond to park at the bridge and the uni and nearby?

Driving in London you really need to pay attention to signs as they can easily catch you out. There's usually one on the roundabout like this showing that you're entering the ULEZ.

Not as sneaky as the Brighton Bus Gate on the Old Steine by Church Street!

Surely people don’t still drive to games when there are perfectly good cycling options available?
