City's Clean Air Zone

City's Clean Air Zone

The Sheffield Clean Air Zone ( CAZ ) is in place from Monday February 27, aimed at improving the city’s air quality.

This is a class C chargeable zone for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), light goods vehicles (LGVs), vans, buses, coaches and taxis that drive within the inner ring road and city centre. Private cars and motorbikes will not be charged. Hackney Carriages don’t have any CAZ charges until June, but they do have the ability to add 80p on top of the meter charge as a fuel surcharge.

A video featuring Greg Fell, Sheffield’s Director of Public Health, has been released, explaining the reasons for the change.

If you’re not sure if your vehicle will be charged, you can check using the GOV.UK vehicle checker .

Sheffield City Council are providing financial support to eligible businesses and organisations to help with the costs of replacing or adapting a non-compliant vehicle with a lower emissions alternative. Support will be paid in the form of a grant, an interest subsidised loan or a mix of the two. See Sheffield City Council’s website for more information and to apply.

In addition to the national exemptions, you may also be eligible for a local exemption or discount. For more information click here.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.
