Transport emissions
Councils are addressing transport emissions through air quality plans and sustainable transport strategies.
Newham's Cabinet approved its Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) for 2025-2030 in March 2026, aiming to improve air quality and reduce pollution. The plan acknowledges that Newham is not yet fully compliant with National Air Quality Objectives for NO2 and PM10, and supports the Mayor of London's target to meet WHO guidelines for PM2.5 by 2030.
Haringey Council decided in July 2025 to launch public consultations on a Kerbside Strategy and an Electric Vehicle (EV) Strategy. These strategies aim to transform streets and promote environmentally friendly transportation. No upcoming meetings are currently scheduled to discuss transport emissions.
