Usually 14 days. Longer if the vehicle is a hire car and the drivers details need to be sought from the hire firm.

If it is established that the incident occurred on Railway land, or on land that BTP have jurisdiction, then any driving offences would normally be prosecuted under the Railway Byelaws.

Railway Byelaws, are quite literally "a law unto themselves".

These Railway Byelaws enable Courts  to fine people.

Entering and/or stopping in a marked area would regarded as a "strict liability" offence. ie you were there so you get a fine.

Evidence from one authorised railway worker is sufficient as are cameras or BTP.

As it is not a road traffic act offence there are no points etc.

 

With Railway Byelaws prosecutions, it is more likely to be months rather than weeks and can be up to six months before you know.

Cross Turner St from it's junction with Tuner St, towards the station is railway land, as are the taxi rank, drop off area  and short stay car park. So, any enforcement of restrictions is down to the station operator or British transport police.

So do they have any time limit to issue notice to keeper after camera catch it or they have six months to issue notice to keeper ?

No.

A Court would rightly question why it has taken so long(6 months+) for a prosecution to be brought in front of the Court, however there is no time limit  if their investigations are being hindered by address changes, false declarations, failures to respond etc.

Not strictly true

Bye Law offences (railway or otherwise) have a time limit of six months for information to be laid before the magistrates court.    After 6 months the right to bring a case under the bye laws expires.   EMT & Northern issue the most cases with relation to bye law (for parking) where as in the south parking on byelaw land is controlled by SABA (formally indigo)

 

Who ever holds the byelaws has the right to bring a case in the magistrates court. 

 

Lots of airports/stations/ports have bye laws attached to them.

Totally agree, but I am trying to make it simpler and to emphasise that Railway Bylaws are not to be ignored, as many think that the word Bylaw implies they can be avoided.
