Four Conservative councils in outer London have been given a deadline to agree to ULEZ's expansion in their areas.
Political Editor, BBC London
Four Tory councils said they would not sign the agreement and have instead launched the first step of their legal action. In a letter to the chief executive of each of the four outer London councils, TfL asked each council to formally agree and sign up by Thursday. "However, the guidance is explicit that TfL may appropriately use them to ensure that the works are completed sufficiently in advance of the 29 August 2023 scheme commencement date."Meanwhile, details have emerged of how the Tory councils intend to challenge the mayor in the courts.
