From RHA website
Greater Manchester want to implement an “investment-led non-charging Clean Air Zone” that avoids punitive charges on non-compliant vehicles.

Whatever that means
It means that they planned on putting one in place that was supposed to have come into effect months ago but the private hire minicab taxi drivers kicked off like hell because they’re all running around in 10,20 year old Toyotas and Nissans and couldn’t afford to replace them. And being mostly from certain ethnic minority groups that Andy Burnham relies on to vote him back into office he couldn’t afford to upset them. So it has basically got canned.
I suspect the Bradford one won’t last overly long either for similar reasons.
We asked about this and the Manchester one at work as we are in and out of both every day. We’ve been told that if you have a euro5 or newer engine the charges don’t apply…I could be wrong though

According to the council website it’s Euro 6. Anything below gets charged

Lol. Enjoy seeing the old R reg Corollas bombing it down the inside lane at 40mph cause they’re really not fit for the road.

Hey, I had an old R reg Corolla a few months ago. Had to sell it due to not having space to keep it but it was a great motor . Very reliable, if a little boring to drive.
As for the ‘Clean air zone’. I am not a fan of these localized CAZ/LEZs etc. Mainly because it is hard to truckers to know where they all are. I think Birmingham is planning one as well right? Or they may already have one idk.
It would be far better just to require all trucks nationally to meet a certain standard like Euro 4 or Euro 5. And let haulers go through the hassle of sorting out exemptions for when they may need to use older vehicles.
It’s just a complete money making scheme. In my area they are talking about doing the same. Yet, if you look at the local buses a lot of them are still on like 2003 plates and they billow out black smoke lol.
If go online but your reg in it lists zones and what charges are.
I drive a diesel astra as screen shot shows.
I go to Bristol or Birmingham I have to pay. Other areas it’s free.
Obviously each city has its own criteria.
Be to easy to have uniformed system of emmisions and zone
Every area is different.will be a nightmare to keep up if you ran a big mixed fleet of Vans trucks.
going into all the zones working out which ones you pay or don’t pay

Correct. All as intended. Fines are even more profitable than the fees.
