The ultra low emission zone (Ulez) in London has been expanded, resulting in cleaner air across the city. A report by Transport for London (TfL) shows that the proportion of vehicles complying with minimum emissions standards has increased from 85% to 95% in the expanded area. The Ulez zone now covers all London boroughs, and petrol cars must generally have been registered after 2005 to meet the emissions standards. Despite limited data on air quality, the decrease in non-compliant vehicles suggests improved air quality in London.
The Ulez zone has been extended from everywhere within the North and South Circular roads to cover all London boroughs
Mr Khan extended the Ulez zone from everywhere within the North and South Circular roads to cover all London boroughs from August 29. TfL’s report showed that 93,700 vehicles which failed to meet minimum emissions standards were driven in the capital on an average day in the first month after the expansion.
