ULEZ coming to Birmingham

[RockyBalboa]

Not sure if this has been posted but an 'Ultra Low Emission Zone' is coming to Birmingham with quite a large catchment area.

Any vehicles below Euro 4 petrol standard (prior to 2006) and Euro 6 diesel (prior 2015) will be charged up to £10 per day, 7 days per week. No exemption for LPG converted vehicles.

I am not against the idea in principle but the catchment area looks very wide to me and that could cause a problem for a lot of people.

Looks like I won't be able to take my LPG converted 2001 v8 into 'the zone'

That entire area is an absolute pain in the arse to drive in anyway, would avoid it as much as possible. Tbh they should extend the ULEZ to cars of ALL ages and maybe that would stop some of the absolute nobends who treat the ring road like a race track.

As are most such areas around the city centre of most such cities but Birmingham has woeful publicc transport and the catchment area seems quite wide so it will inevitably affect a lot of people.
