PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Clean Air Zones: Publicity (1 June 2022)

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether the Government plans to establish a national standard notification framework to ensure that Clean Air Zones are (a) fairly and (b) clearly notified to non-local road users.

Asked by:
Judith Cummins (Labour)

Under the Clean Air Zone Framework, a national standard notification was established through the requirement to delineate zones by use of standard signs along major access routes.

Local authorities are best placed to deliver communications on their local Clean Air Zones (CAZ). To support the local authorities with the communication of their local air quality plans, in this financial year, we have allocated £1.5m for their regional marketing campaigns. We also work with local authorities to ensure that their communications are appropriate to notify non-local road users.
