Request relating to road traffic fixed penalty notices

10 May 2023

Your request

I would like to request under the Freedom of Information Act, information held by London Borough of Lambeth relating to road traffic Fixed Penalty Notices issued by your officers for the financial years 2017-18 to 2022-23 inclusive.

In particular, I would like to concentrate on FPNs issued on the basis of ANPR camera systems operated by London Borough of Lambeth. An example of such a notice would be a camera covering a boxed junction or a one-way street.

I would like to know the total number of FPNs issued by London Borough of Lambeth during the period and the number of FPNs issued on the basis of evidence from ANPR camera systems.

I would like a further breakdown of the ANPR figures to show the number of:

* Yellow Box offences

* Illegal left/right turn offences

* Entering a Low Traffic Neighbourhood zone

* Entering a school street area during a restricted time.

I would also like locations of the ANPR cameras / locations of the junctions with the number of offences.

I would also like to get data on the number of appeals made by motorists in each category for the period in question and the result.

If London Borough of Lambeth operates mobile CCTV cars, I would also like request the number of such vehicles in use, and the number of FPNs issued including the nature of the offence/offence code.

Our response

Please note the below information is for PCN (Penalty Charge Notice) and not Fixed Penalty Notices. This is because PCNS are issued in these instances, not FPNs.
