Today, London took one step closer to cleaning up our air with the initiation of the Mayor’s ‘Toxicity Charge’.
The ‘T-Charge’ is a £10 per day charge, over and above the Congestion Charge, for London’s most polluting vehicles, and is a precursor to the roll out of the Ultra Low Emission Zone for London, which is to be introduced next year.
At present, over 9,000 Londoners die prematurely every year as a result of poor air quality, so the need for this action has never been greater.”
