A man has been fined for driving past his own house after his road was turned into a ‘school street’., had been issued five fines for using his road during ‘restricted hours’ which sees traffic around schools reduced during school times.

He was told by Harrow Council he would not have to re-register them once the trial ended but he has continued to be penalised since the measures have become permanent. ‘I don’t understand what’s gone on. They’re sending fines to someone who lives in the zone, surely they can see that isn’t right if we’re supposed to be exempt,’He described the experience as ‘being a prisoner in [his] own home’ adding it has got to the point where he is scared to go out on the road.Harrow Conservatives’ leader, Councillor Paul Osborn, said it was important to make the right call on the scheme to avoid changing it later down the line.
