Bradford

The lead in period for the Clean Air Zone (CAZ) has been extended. Instead of being introduced in January (as originally planned), the CAZ will be launched in Spring 2022. This will allow businesses more time to use the Clean Air Funding available and upgrade their vehicles.

Bradford was added to the Government’s vehicle checker on Monday 15th November. Please check the ‘Drive in a clean air zone’ page to find out if you will be charged. Further information on Bradford’s CAZ is available at breathe better BRADFORD, including a map of the CAZ.
