In response to Transport for London’s (TfL) announcement that a Low Emission Bus Zone (LEBZ) has been launched between Lewisham and Catford, local London Assembly Member, Len Duvall AM, said:

“Our capital is facing an air quality crisis with the health of Lewisham residents being put at direct risk.

“It is very positive to see the Mayor take radical and urgent action to tackle air pollution locally, by implementing this new Low Emission Bus Zone.

“Coming just weeks after the introduction of the Ultra Low Emissions Zone in Central London, this move to clean up our bus fleet marks a significant step forward in achieving the aim of bringing London’s air quality within legal levels in the next six years”.
