Summary of request
Your request
Please provide the statistics of Londoners or visitors who have actually died as a direct result of worsening air pollution attributable to older vehicle emissions, your main justification for extending the ULEZ zone.
Our response
In 2019, in Greater London, 61,800 to 70,200 life years lost (the equivalent of between 3,600 to 4,100 attributable deaths) were estimated to be attributable to anthropogenic fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), assuming health effects exist even at very low levels.
