I can confirm that we hold the information you require.
Note that on 25th October 2021 the ULEZ was expanded to cover the area up to but not including the north and south circular roads. As the expansion was new we issued warning notices instead of Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) between 25th October 2021 – 21st November 2021. This was to make those entering the expanded zone without payment aware of the need to pay the daily charge. We issued PCNs from 22nd November 2022.
The table below give details of income from ULEZ daily charge payments over the periods specified in your request.
