Commenting on the Mayor’s announcement expanding the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), Adam Tyndall, Programme Director for Transport at London First, said:
“While expanding ULEZ will bring a welcome boost to air quality across the capital, it is disappointing that the Mayor is relying on a mechanism that will run out of road in the next few years. Simply incentivising Londoners to buy electric cars will do nothing to address the chronic congestion we see across London. We hope that this consultation leads to a more integrated scheme that is cost-effective for the essential road users and businesses who keep our city working.”
