This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Stop the CAZ charge in Bradford the clean air zone is an entrapment zone
Stop the charge to enter clean air zone, there isn't any alternative routes to avoid the entrapment charge poor signage prior to entering the areas, poor road infrastructure forcing vehicles into the entrapment zone
More details
In this era of high energy prices & inflation the number of chargeable vehicles entering bradford will only add to causing higher prices in an already run down city
We urge the government to insist that Bradford Council reassess this unreasonable charge as other cities in the North of England have already done, for example Leeds & Manchester.
Charging to enter a clean air zone does not clean the air, but allowing free movement of traffic does
