London Mayor Boris Johnson has suspended the third phase of the London Low Emission Zone (LEZ) two days before the commercial vehicle emission-reducing scheme’s first birthday.
We are VOSA approved Low Emissions Zone pollution abatement fitter.
Being in the vehicle rescue and recovery industry we understand
the concerns and problems arising from the new London LEZ legislation.
All vehicles entering the LEZ are required to be compliant or
face huge fines. Using specialist solutions fitted by us customers
are able to run older vehicles in the LEZ whilst being confident
they are compliant and not polluting the atmosphere. The LEZ compliance
is being phased in so transport managers and owner drivers need to be aware of the
ever changing map of LEZ compliance for London.

As you can see there is plenty of planning to be made whether you have a fleet of vehicles or even just the one. If you have any questions we'd be glad to help you plan for any existing or new LEZ compliance issues.

and other organisations involved in the decision-making process on all
matters relating to the vehicle recovery industry and also to raise
standards in the recovery industry. The
