Judicial review into plans to expand London's Ultra-Low Emission Zone to start at High Court
A judicial review into Sadiq Khan's plans to expand London's Ultra-Low Emission Zone is due to get under way at the High Court on Tuesday.
"You're not going to please a hundred percent of people all the time," he added. "No politician in history has managed to do so."The ULEZ scheme requires people who drive in non-compliant, or more polluting, vehicles to pay a daily charge of £12.50 on days they are driven within inner London. A majority of cars driven in London are ULEZ-compliant.
In April, the High Court ruled there was sufficient evidence on three of the grounds for the case to proceed to trial on the basis that the ULEZ extension might be unlawful. The controversial scheme has triggered a fierce debate across the city, pitting the mayor and health campaigners against those who say they cannot take another economic hit during a time where costs are already soaring.
