I regularly travel through an area that has its own clean air zone, and was interested in the findings of the six month monitoring report for the ULEZ zone. I would be grateful if you could send me all information held against the following questions under FOIA 2000 and EIR 2004. Word and PDF files would be acceptable. Q1. Why was the six month monitoring report for the ULEZ zone not produced by TfL, who consulted over expansion and then implemented it? Q2. What ULEZ zone revenue was received for the first six months commending 29th August 2023 from the outer London area newly subject to charging? Q3. What rough estimates are held on the percentage of vehicles with cloned number plates to feign ULEZ zone compliance or exemption?

Word and PDF files would be acceptable.


Q1. Why was the six month monitoring report for the ULEZ zone not produced by TfL, who consulted over expansion and then implemented it?

 

In regards to your first question, a copy of the London-wide ULEZ Six Month Report, as well as the supporting data, is available on the GLA website via the following link, which provides information on emissions:
 

https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-strategies/environment-and-climate-change/environment-and-climate-change-publications/london-wide-ulez-six-month-report

 

Details of the public consultation are included in the ‘Report to Mayor on ULEZ expansion and future Road User Charging proposal’ available on our consultation website: https://haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/cleanair?cid=clean-air

 


Q2. What ULEZ zone revenue was received for the first six months commending 29th August 2023 from the outer London area newly subject to charging?

 

Please note that ULEZ income is published per financial year and is detailed in our annual statement of accounts. 

 

We record ULEZ income for the entire zone and not just the expanded area.

 


Q3. What rough estimates are held on the percentage of vehicles with cloned number plates to feign ULEZ zone compliance or exemption?

 

We are unable to provide data on estimates of cloned vehicles.  Please see previous FOI where vehicle data on cloned vehicles has been provided: FOI-4617-2324: FOI request detail - Transport for London (tfl.gov.uk)

 

If this is not the information you are looking for, or if you are unable to access it for any reason, please do not hesitate to contact me.

 

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

 

Yours sincerely
