Greater Manchester (GM) is taking action to improve air quality on local roads – now and for future generations. 

All ten local authorities have worked together to develop the Greater Manchester Clean Air Plan. This will help bring nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels on local roads within legal limits by 2024. The final Clean Air Plan has now been approved by the councils, following a public consultation and further development work.

It includes a Greater Manchester-wide Clean Air Zone, which is anticipated to launch on 30 May 2022. More than £120m in government funding will also be available to support eligible Greater Manchester businesses, people and organisations to move to cleaner vehicles before the Zone is introduced. 

The Club will be making a representation on behalf of members, however, if members themselves want to get involved the more input the better.

Please visit Clean Air Greater Manchester for more information and please also share with anyone who might be interested, or visit the consultation here: https://cleanairgm.com/consultation

Maybe, maybe not, but that is no reason not to clean up the pollution caused by dirty engines.

For people who can afford a vehicle with a clean engine.

What about the people not on a bus route which there are many need there old car for work which takes them into one of these clean air zones. They can’t afford the charge or to change to a more expensive none polluting car. They then suffer from anxiety due to all this. Does their mental health not count or is it just health problems caused by polluting vehicles that count

I was asking you wether their mental health counted or not or are you not concerned about people with mental health problems. Or only health problems caused by pollution

In a capitalist society such as the UK, not everyone can be equal. Accept it or move out.
