More detailed information on the reason for the potential delay of the Clean Air Zone is needed, the city's Green Party has said. The party has said the reasons given by the mayor are "concerningly vague".
Earlier this week, mayor Marvin Rees said that the launch of the CAZ will likely be delayed yet again due to a “national issue with bus lanes”. The Clean Air Zone was initially due to come into force in October last year, but has faced repeated delays.
Recently it was expected to be launched this September, but this will now likely be pushed back again due to a change in regulations on bus lanes. The mayor of Bristol said the city council has done “everything we can” and blamed Westminster for the delays.
