Clean Air Zone proven success in Sheffield

Reports have shown that the introduction of the Clean Air Zone in Sheffield has proven to be successful in the reduction of nitrogen dioxide levels across the city.

Across the zone, there has been a 21% reduction in the level of nitrogen dioxide which Sheffield City Council suggests is due to vehicle upgrades away from more traditional vehicles. This scheme will continue, as the urge to improve air quality remains as poor air quality can have devastating impacts on public health.
