Vigilantes opposed to the huge expansion of the scheme from August 29 have targeted enforcement cameras.
Nearly 300 crimes relating to London’s ultra-low emission zone cameras have been recorded, police said
They describe themselves as Blade Runners, often cutting the cameras’ wires or completely removing the devices. Multiple offences can be linked to one camera, such as a cable being cut and then the camera being stolen. “We are working closely with Transport for London and – alongside our investigation into offences already committed – we are supporting them to identify new ways to prevent further cameras from being damaged or stolen.
Scotland Yard released an image of a man they want to trace in connection with four camera offences in Hillingdon, Harrow and Uxbridge on June 17. Vehicles that do not meet minimum emissions standards are required to pay a £12.50 daily fee when used in the Ulez zone, or face a fine.
