From Tuesday, the Ulez will be expanded to include the whole of the capital.
London mayor Sadiq Khan accused the Government of “weaponising air pollution” ahead of his expansion of the capital’s ultra-low emission zone .
A £160 million scheme run by Transport for London enables residents, small businesses, sole traders and charities scrapping non-compliant cars to claim grants. “In fact, the Government has provided TfL £6 billion since 2020 to keep public transport moving and almost £102 million for projects specifically targeted to help tackle air pollution.”
Some opponents of Ulez expansion claim the policy is aimed at generating money for TfL and criticised the mayor for introducing it during the cost of living crisis. Anti-Ulez vigilantes have repeatedly targeted enforcement cameras installed in the new areas in recent months.
