Khan suspends C-charge, ULEZ & LEZ

Transport for London has suspended all road user charging schemes in the capital until further notice because of Covid-19. The action took effect on 23 March and covers the congestion charge, the ultra-low emission zone, and the low emission zone. London mayor Sadiq Khan said the suspension would help key workers travel easily, with driving being the “simplest option” for many in current circumstances. “This is not an invitation to take to your cars,” said Khan. “To save lives we need the roads clear for ambulances, doctors, nurses and other critical workers.”
