Mayor’s ULEZ expanded to all Greater London boroughs

The London Mayor’s Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) has been expanded to cover all 32 boroughs of Greater London.

The controversial scheme has made driving more expensive for many Londoners, charging people £12.50 per day for driving vehicles that fail to meet certain emissions standards, frustrating many of those now forced to pay the fee.

Critics, including the prime minister, argue the daily charge is unfair and will put unnecessary financial pressure on drivers.

But Sadiq Khan and health experts are adamant the scheme is crucial for cleaner air.
