In this guide “Low-Emission Zones: the Essential Guide Practical solutions for city leaders” <\/a>Clean Cities recommends that cities should immediately start introducing low-emission zones (LEZ) if no such measures are currently in place, and that all LEZs should have a clear path towards becoming zero-emission zones (ZEZs) by the 2030s at the latest to tackle the double challenges of air pollution and climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low-emission zones (LEZs) are areas where the most polluting vehicles are regulated. They have become a widespread measure in European cities, with more than 320 active LEZs registered by 2022<\/strong> and over 500 expected by 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

LEZs have proven to be effective at reducing air pollution, contributing to reducing carbon emissions, mitigating congestion, and incentivising the transition to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This briefing, by the Clean Cities Campaign, is a condensed overview of the knowledge base on LEZs, using our own research and the most up-to-date scientific publications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It includes a deep-dive into LEZs, practical solutions for city leaders and best practice examples from cities across Europe, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
