Council chiefs have confirmed there are no immediate plans to review the size, positioning and number of signs warning motorists about Bristol’s Clean Air Zone, despite a deluge of complaints from drivers who claimed they missed them.
But the city council did say that if ‘specific issues are identified’, then the location and visibility of particular signs or entrances to the Clean Air Zone will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, to see if they continue to meet Government guidance.
There are more than 400 individual signs notifying motorists they are heading towards, entering or are in the Clean Air Zone, which charges drivers £9 for a car or van and £120 for a lorry, and fines drivers if they don’t pay up to £120, with some signs miles from the edge of the zone.
