Frequently asked questions
What are the operating times of the Trinity Road bus lane?
The Trinity Road Bus Lane in Haringey operates 7am to 10am and 4pm to 7pm, Monday to Friday. Outside these hours, general traffic may use the road normally.
How much is the fine for driving through the Trinity Road bus lane?
Haringey Council issues a Penalty Charge Notice of £160, reduced to £80 if paid within 14 days. There are no penalty points — it is a civil penalty.
Who is allowed to use the Trinity Road bus lane?
Buses, black cabs (hackney carriages), motorcycles and pedal cycles are permitted. Not permitted: cars, vans, lorries and private hire vehicles.
Can I appeal a PCN from the Trinity Road bus lane?
Yes, and it costs nothing. Make formal representations to Haringey Council first — the authority that issued the PCN has to consider them before it can enforce the penalty. If Haringey Council rejects them it must issue a Notice of Rejection, and you can then appeal free to the Environment and Traffic Adjudicators at London Tribunals. Its adjudicators are lawyers independent of the enforcing authority, and their decision is binding on both sides. The grounds that win here are that your vehicle was not in the bus lane during its operating times (7–10am, 4–7pm Mon–Fri), that it was an exempt vehicle, or that the signage did not make the restriction clear. Note that paying the £80 discounted rate accepts liability and closes the case, so challenge before you pay.
