A zero emission zone (ZEZ) is to be implemented in the core of Oxford city centre this summer, before a much larger zone is introduced next spring.
The initial ZEZ, described as a pilot, will be implemented in August covering a handful of streets in the city’s core, where traffic is already heavily restricted. The only public car parking within the zone is for Blue Badge holders who will be eligible for a 100 per cent discount.
