PCN code 25: parked in a loading place
What this contravention code means, and how to appeal it · On-Street
Code 25 means the council or TfL recorded your vehicle as parked in a loading place or bay during restricted hours without loading. A valid permit or payment that simply didn't show, or signage that wasn't clear at the time, is a real basis to challenge this rather than pay it.
Full description on the ticket: “Parked in a loading place or bay during restricted hours without loading.”
Letter after the code, like 25n?
A letter after the number narrows down the exact circumstances: n means red route, 2 means goods vehicle loading bay. We factor the exact suffix into your letter automatically.
Can I appeal this?
Yes. This is a statutory Penalty Charge Notice from a council or TfL, not a private charge, so you have a formal right to challenge it before it escalates into a Charge Certificate.
