The ten Greater Manchester local authorities have approved the Greater Manchester Clean Air Plan, which includes a category C charging Clean Air Zone (CAZ).

Birmingham City Council’s Cabinet has voted today on closing city centre roads to through-traffic, except for zero-emission buses and cyclists.

It is now less than three weeks until 25 October, when London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) expands up to, but not including the North and South Circular Roads.

Outgoing Transport Minister Rachel Maclean paid tribute to the fleet sector’s role in delivering road transport decarbonisation as she addressed the BVRLA’s Parliamentary Reception last week.

With London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone due for a massive expansion next month, Christina Calderato, Head of Transport Strategy and Planning at Transport for London, tells members everything they need to know.

The BVRLA Fleet Sustainability Credentials show that the rental and leasing sectors are already leading the transition to cleaner transport. 100% of rented, leased and car club cars are Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) compliant and 99% of rented vans (96% of leased vans) are as well.

The 2021 edition of the BVRLA's annual Road to Zero Report Card not only assesses progress towards zero emission fleets in terms of EV supply, EV demand and charging infrastructure, but also for the first time compares progress for cars, vans and trucks.

Christina Calderato, Head of Transport Strategy and Planning at Transport for London writes to inform members of the where, when, and why of the ULEZ expansion from this October.

The BVRLA has responded to the Government’s proposals on phasing-out the sale of new, non-zero emission heavy goods vehicles.

Members who are tendering for Government contracts for the provision of vehicle rental or leasing will be required to have a Carbon Reduction Plan in place if the value exceeds £5 million per annum.

Free to attend, the BVRLA Fleets in Charge Conference will take place online on Thursday 7 October between 9.30am and 2pm and is open to all.

The BVRLA is formulating a response to the Government’s consultation on the proposed options for a carbon dioxide (CO2) regulatory framework for all new road vehicles in the UK.
