Commercial vehicle operators and local businesses running vans or trucks, are invited to a free half-day roadshow on 6 March to hear first-hand from Bath & North East Somerset Council about plans for a proposed charging Clean Air Zone (CAZ) in central Bath.
Along with 27 other authorities, the council has been told by the Government to cut dangerous levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the shortest possible time or by 2021 at the latest.
Under the proposed plans, commercial vehicle operators would need to ensure their fleet vehicles meet Euro 6 standards for diesel and Euro 4 standards for petrol to avoid being charged in a proposed zone. Following a public consultation, the council is carrying out further assessments before it confirms a final plan.
