Oxford approves UK s first local air quality targets
Oxford City Council has approved local air pollution targets through to 2025 that are stricter than the national legal target.
Actions covering emissions from transport, heating, industry and services have been developed to support the delivery of the new target
In what it claims is a UK first, members of the Council’s cabinet voted this week to approve an Air Quality Action Plan spanning 2021-2025. The Plan is headlined by a commitment to ensure that levels of NO2 are no higher than 30 micrograms per cubic metre of air (30 µg/m3) by the end of 2025.
