On his election in 2016, the Mayor committed to a large scale consultation on a range of actions to address poor air quality in London. Measures under consideration include implementing the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) in 2019 rather than 2020, expanding the boundaries of the ULEZ, and introducing an Emissions Surcharge on the most polluting vehicles driving in central London from 2017. In addition the Mayor has committed to cleaning up London bus fleets, using air quality alerts, and exploring options for a diesel scrappage scheme.
This report and associated data sets out the results from the Stage 1 consultation, which will inform Transport for London’s further consultation in the Autumn.
