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

Because it acts as a disincentive for people to take vehicles into any of the zones. Hopefully money raised is also used to promote and provide better public transport? Talk of Cambridge doing the same which could impact of both CMC and C&CC sites although at the moment it is only being considered.

I think Cambridge is also looking at a congestion charge of £5per day which could well cover Cherry Hinton. Cc site and the CCC site
