In the countdown to D-Day, the Mayoral Election on 2 May 2024, it’s time for a major ULEZ Update covering the Green Insurer’s survey on what people think of schemes like ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone in London) and CAZ (Clean Air Zone in Birmingham), plus the sudden infestations of Bat Boxes on ULEZ Camera poles thwarting maintenance staff from restoring vision to cameras that may not longer be functioning properly (courtesy Batman!) and I provide updates on all the events planned between now and the election.

Budget 2024 Impact on Motorists

Fuel Duty Frozen but You will still Pay More – Here’s Why!

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt delivered his budget today (6 March 2024), probably the last budget before the General Election (and of the current Conservative Government?) – so what was in it for the motorist?

ULEZ – London Air Quality Test 6 Months On

Temtop Test Part 3 – following on from two highly viewed videos I did last year

Six months on from the expansion of ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) to cover the whole of London, in August 2023 and the London Mayor still hasn’t released impact data to prove that it’s improved the air quality in the expanded zones. And it won’t be released until after the elections in May 2024. However, I shot two videos last year, taking an ELITECH Temptop air quality meter around London, covering firstly the previous ULEZ zone in part 1 and the proposed area of expansion in Part 2. This means I can directly compare my findings today, six months on from the expansion to the data I had before, to see if there has been any improvement in air quality. This is what I do in this video. And the results may surprise you – they certainly astonished me!
