Leeds City Council is set to scrap its Clean Air Zone (CAZ) plans after businesses switched to cleaner vehicles in anticipation, and could repurpose the scheme's vehicle tracking technology.
A joint review with central government concluded that the CAZ is no longer required after vehicles were switched ‘faster than expected’.
Leeds City Council has already written to the Government asking to keep £6.9m of CAZ funding to ‘lock in’ the full extent of air quality improvements.
The money would be used to continue offering grants to help local businesses switch to cleaner vehicles as well as to provide free licensing costs to drivers of less polluting taxis and private hire cars.
