WHAT IS THE ULTRA LOW EMISSION ZONE? (ULEZ)

Ultra Low Emission Zones, or ULEZs, are designated areas where only the cleanest vehicles are allowed to drive. The goal of ULEZs is to improve air quality by reducing emissions from vehicles.

To drive in a ULEZ, a vehicle must meet certain emissions standards. These standards are typically stricter than those required by the state or national government. For example, in London, ULEZ standards require vehicles to meet Euro 4 emissions standards (mostly pre-2006 models) and Euro 6 standards for diesel vehicle (mostly pre-2017 models). By expanding London’s ULEZ it is estimated it will take off 20,000 to 40,000 vehicles off the road.

If a vehicle does not meet the ULEZ standards, the driver may be subject to a fine. In London, for example, the fine is £12.50 per day, in addition to the congestion charge.

ULEZs have been implemented in several cities around the world, including London, Paris, Madrid, and Athens, and it is likely that more cities will implement ULEZs in the future to aid in reducing emissions and improving air quality.
