Bromley Council, alongside three other boroughs, recently attempted to halt the expansion of London's low emission zone through a judicial review. Despite this opposition, a City Hall study revealed significant benefits from the ULEZ expansion, particularly in Bromley, where nitrogen oxide emissions dropped by 15.2% last year. Other boroughs similarly benefited, with outer London experiencing a 14% overall reduction in NOx emissions. Additionally, the rate of compliant vehicles rose markedly, validating Mayor Sadiq Khan's decision to extend the ULEZ for improved air quality across the capital.
Bromley Council's attempt to block the ULEZ expansion failed, but a new study found significant reductions in NOx emissions, proving the policy's effectiveness.
A City Hall report indicated that Bromley saw a 15.2% reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions in 2023 due to the ULEZ policy, one of the largest among London boroughs.
