The Air Quality Annual Status Report for 2024 indicates a notable reduction in nitrogen dioxide levels by 40% since 2018, with PM2.5 levels halved compared to the 2028 target. All monitored sites in Redbridge are now compliant with national legal limits for key pollutants. These achievements are credited to collaborative efforts with various government entities and local initiatives like traffic restrictions around schools and an expanding electric vehicle fleet. Cllr Jo Blackman emphasizes clean air's importance for community health and commits to continual improvements in air quality.
"This is a huge step forward for Redbridge. People in Redbridge can enjoy cleaner and healthier air, reducing the risk of respiratory diseases and improving overall quality of life."
"Clean air is essential for our communities, and through strong partnerships with key stakeholders in central and regional government, as well as bold local action, we're delivering meaningful change."
