Transport for London (TfL) recently held a consultation on expanding the Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) London-wide from the end of August 2023.

Transport for London (TfL) has launched a consultation on expanding the Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) London-wide from the end of August 2023. 

The Mayor of London has asked Transport for London (TfL) to consult on expanding the ULEZ in 2023. The move is seeking to build on the existing Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and the tighter Low Emission Zone (LEZ) standards, which have reportedly reduced nitrogen oxide emissions by 30% across London.  

Sadiq Khan has today announced his plans to reduce air pollution, tackle the climate emergency and cut congestion in the capital to create a greener, healthier city fit for the future. 

Commenting on today’s announcement from the Mayor of London detailing plans to reach net zero by 2030, BVRLA Chief Executive, Gerry Keaney, said:

The BVRLA and Collaborative Mobility UK (CoMoUK) have written to the Mayor of London to request an open discussion about the future of the Capital’s transport network and evaluate the positive role rental and car clubs can play in reducing congestion and emissions in London.  

Leading representatives of the mobility services sector have collectively written to the Mayor of London to request an open discussion about the future of the Capital’s transport network and evaluate the positive role shared mobility can play in reducing congestion and emissions in London.

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.

The BVRLA has responded to the Government’s consultation on a new CO2 regulatory framework for new vehicle sales, highlighting some of the potential impacts on the fleet sector and how to mitigate against these risks.

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.

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.
