🚦 Road transport is a major driver of urban air pollution. With 41.7M vehicles, the UK is struggling with poor air quality. Low Emission Zones (LEZs) are one solution—hundreds exist worldwide. But none yet in NI or RoI. Should that change? Read Neil's blog on the LEZ workshop here: lnkd.in/gpHxTj3k
