Council workers have been door-knocking in Bristol neighbourhoods helping residents to prepare for the upcoming imposition of the Bristol Clean Air Zone (CAZ).
After visiting homes in Lawrence Weston on Friday, representatives of Bristol City Council will be in Filwood between 11am and 3pm today (August 3), handing out information about changes and charges set to come into force from November 28.
Drivers of the most polluting vehicles will be charged at least £9 for driving within the CAZ boundary, in an effort to cut an estimated three hundred deaths per year from traffic-related air pollution. The border of the zone will stretch to the Bearpit in the north, Temple Meads train station in the east and the River Avon in the south and west.
