CV operators are invited to attend an hour-long webinar at 2pm on Monday 27 January, during which the BVRLA will be discussing the key findings of the association’s new CV Outlook 2020 report launching that day.
Key topics covered include air quality and Clean Air Zones.
As local authorities introduce measures to tackle air quality, the BVRLA continues to liaise with policymakers to make them aware of the challenges that commercial vehicle operators in particular, face.
The lack of availability of suitable electric vehicles, inadequate charging infrastructure and significant up-front cost differential are all factors affecting the uptake of electric in the CV sector.
The BVRLA is urging local and national policymakers to take all these factors into account when introducing local clean air or congestion measures – which can have a particularly big impact on SME’s that can’t afford to upgrade their fleets overnight.
