In just three months, Bristol will become the latest city to introduce a Clean Air Zone (CAZ) in an effort to curb air pollution in its centre. The CAZ will come into force on November 28.
The measures have been brought in to make Bristol “a healthier place for everyone”, Bristol City Council states. This means that older or more polluting vehicles will be charged to travel within the CAZ in the centre of the city.
Around one quarter of Bristol’s vehicle owners are expected to be affected by the change. However, Bristol’s residents and business owners are being urged to apply for the financial support offered by Bristol City Council.
