About this camera

Richmond Council lists a fixed enforcement camera at Heath Road, Twickenham. A PCN from this camera alleges driving in the bus lane while it is in operation (code 34). It is sent by post to the registered keeper with a photo of the alleged contravention, and you can view the PCN details and evidence on Richmond's website from 10am on the next working day. Check the hours on the bus lane sign; many lanes only operate at peak times. As a London camera, no first-time warning is expected here, and appeals go to London Tribunals, where the moving traffic grounds are narrower than outside London. Richmond's list gives this as camera 246722, enforcing "bus lane" (code 34J). The council says these locations are enforced only by CCTV; its list is dated as valid from 11 August 2026.

Common grounds at a bus lane camera

  • Check the hours of operation on the blue sign; many lanes are part-time.
  • Entering briefly to turn left into a side road or to pass an obstruction may be allowed; check the sign and markings.
  • Was the start of the lane marked with the correct sign and road marking?

Camera PCNs must normally be served within 28 days of the date. You can ask the council to let you view the recording, or send stills, free of charge.

Paying within 14 days gets the 50% discount. Challenging first does not stop you paying later, but the discount may not be offered again once it expires, so note the date.
