Grounds for Appeal - Lorry Ban (Operators)

These are the only grounds on which you may appeal against a Lorry Ban Penalty Charge Notice as an operator

1. You were not the operator of the vehicle at the time of the alleged contravention
   The operator is defined as the holder of any operators' licence in respect of that vehicle under section 2 of the Goods Vehicles (Licensing of Operators) Act 1995
   
   
2. There was no contravention of the lorry ban order
   For example, the vehicle was not in the restricted zone at the time of the contravention or the vehicle had been used in accordance with a permit.
   
   
3. The penalty exceeded the amount applicable in the circumstances
   For example, you are being asked to pay the wrong amount for the penalty charge or the penalty had not been served or was served out of time. ALG TEC should normally send you the Penalty Charge Notice within 28 days of the alleged contravention, but they sometimes have longer.
