Thank you for your answer to my question 2025/0837 where I asked if pollution sensors would be in place on the Breathe London network for sites being replaced near the Silvertown Road Tunnel. At the present time these sites are not live on the Breathe London page. When will the Breathe London page update and will all data for these sensors be available to access when that happens?
