Clean Air Zone Roadshow: Leeds
3 July, Elland Road Stadium, Leeds
9-1pm
Leeds City Council is consulting on plans to introduce a Clean Air Zone by the end of 2019, which will see HGVs needing to meet Euro-6 emissions standards to enter the city without paying a daily fee.
This free, half-day event is an opportunity for all HGV operators and associated businesses to find out more about the proposals from the city council and take steps now to future-proof their fleets.
It will feature an outside display of the latest clean vehicle technology, from current Euro-6 models through to electric and gas options, whilst giving you the opportunity to speak directly with manufacturers and suppliers on the day.
Topics discussed will include:
You’ll also have the opportunity to hear directly from Leeds City Council about the Clean Air Zone progress and ask any questions you have on the day to key team members.
This exciting roadshow is a fantastic networking opportunity for both local and national fleet operators, so why not register today?
