TfL Ref: EIR-2170-2324 Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 20th September 2023 asking for information about the ULEZ scheme. Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) and our information access policy. Specifically you asked: “With regards to ULEZ from 29th August 2023 please provide the following information up to the current date of your office processing the information for my research:- All vehicles 3.5t or less How many vehicles had to pay the £12.50 charge and date of charge ages of vehicles (vehicle manufacture date ideal) area in which they were initially charged/picked up by the camera. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How many vehicles did not have to pay the £12.50 charge ages of vehicles (vehicle manufacture date ideal) area in which they were initially charged/picked up by the camera.” I can confirm that we hold some of the information you require. In answer to your first question (how many had to pay the charge) this is published in the First Month Report for the recent ULEZ expansion, a copy of which can be found on our website here:
Note that we do not record the make and model of a vehicle paying the charge or where it was captured, and hence we do not hold the information for that part of the question For your second set of questions (how many vehicles did not have to pay the charge etc.), we do not hold this information. Not having to pay the charge means the vehicle is compliant or exempt. When a compliant or exempt vehicle is observed in the zone we do not retain a record of that vehicle being in the zone as we have no reason to retain it. 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, David Wells FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
