'Angry' man blasts Bath's Clean Air Zone after being fined £273 for travelling 100 metres

An 'angry' man has blasted Bath's Clean Air Zone's layout after being fined £273 for travelling 100 metres. Justin Clifford claims he had been "forced" into the zone by roadworks on the high street - and the zone's map hasn't been designed properly.

He was dropping his children to school at the time and had to take a different route. Part of his diversion took him approximately 100 metres into the Clean Air Zone. He drives a van, which is eligible for a £9 daily charge, reports Somerset Live.

Mr Clifford said: "I was taking my children to school. They go to Oldfield Park Infants and normally I go by Twerton high street. However, in March last year, there were roadworks at the Arches, so I had to go a different way.
