Summary of request
Your request
The majority of public opinion voted against it, why are you not adhering to what public says. Give us statistical record of how much pollution/traffic reduced in London since introduction of ULEZ.
Our response
The Mayor’s response to the consultation has been raised at Mayor’s Question Time. His response is available here: Ignoring Consultations | London City Hall
There are several further questions relating to this subject matter, with answers published on the GLA website: Questions to the Mayor | London City Hall (Search, keyword ULEZ and filter by date – 1 Dec to today).
The GLA regularly reports on the air quality and vehicle reduction impacts of the ULEZ. This reporting uses data from the city’s air quality monitoring network to analyse the long term trends in pollution concentrations as well as estimating the impacts of the scheme. You can read the most recent report on the GLA website and find links to the previous reports within: Inner London Ultra Low Emission Zone Expansion One Year Report | London City Hall
We will shortly be publishing an updated report on the impacts of the existing inner London ULEZ after one full year of operation, which will contain an updated analysis of air quality monitoring trends, compliance level, and vehicle numbers using the data from the monitoring network.
