The new proposals would see the ULEZ charge extended to Greater London to protect people and the economy from the damaging impacts of air pollution

‘Mini Recharged’ has been launched giving the British classic hatch an electric feel

Almost 92% of vehicles driven into the zone in the first month of ULEZ were compliant, according to the report

It is estimated that the number of heavy vehicles meeting ULEZ standards has doubled since the scheme was first introduced in February 2017

In addition, more businesses can benefit from the scheme as the eligibility criteria has been changed to include small businesses with 50 or less employees

Drivers can get up to £2,000 for scrapping older and more polluting cars or motorcycles for cleaner ones

A new report reveals there are now 13,500 fewer polluting cars being driven into central London every day

Projects being supported include four new Low Emission Neighbourhoods in the capital

Around 9,400 fewer ‘non-compliant’ vehicles were seen in the zone on an average day since the scheme started in April

They cover more than 1,330 buses across 79 different routes in Lewisham, Stratford and Edmonton
