Any driver, including residents, within the expanded clean-air zones will have to pay around $16 each day they use their car
Public outcry against the expansion of London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone has reached new heights, with some drivers now taking matters into their own hands.
The Metropolitan Police reports that hundreds of cameras that read number plates have been damaged, disabled, or stolen. But, with new regulations set to come into place expanding the preview of the low emissions zones, thousands will be on the hook for daily charges to use their vehicles.ULEZ was first introduced in central London in 2019 before being further expanded in 2021 to the city’s inner suburbs.
Residents will have no choice but to pay the ULEZ charge of £12.50 every day they wish to drive their vehicle if it doesn’t conform to the stringent emissions regulations. Most gas-powered vans and cars manufactured before 2006 andbuilt prior to 2015 do not qualify for an exemption, making them liable for the daily charge. Adding insult to injury, the fee is levied on top of the Congestion Charge if a car is to enter central London during peak hours.
For many lower-income households, the move has become unpopular. With inflation up by 11 percent last year, families are being struck by the rising cost of living. In addition, public transport links outside of the city center are not as convenient as those found towards the inner city, meaning that car ownership is higher in Greater London.
