Jeffrey Shaw Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) I'm still baffled why the A61 Ring Road is itself in the CAZ (rather than just everything inwards from the A61, which would have enabled non-compliant vehicles to avoid causing whatever pollution they might cause to the City Centre).

Yup - some of us flagged this up nigh on 4 years ago - and am sure I wasn't the first. https://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/topic/468612-sheffield-clean-air-zone/?tab=comments#comment-8260201 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a word. Money. Both in captures from those vehicles that need to use the ring road as there's no other viable alternate & cameras, There are a lot more road from the ring road into the centre than there are on to the ring road. Including park square roundabout is one of the most baffling though, given that every other roundabout on the ring road isn't camera'd giving you the opportunity to go around it and back away from the CAZ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remain convinced that the failure to sign is a contravention of the requirements of a CAZ and would therefore be valid grounds for appeal.

In other hilarious news, only FIVE people turned up to their protest this afternoon 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Edited May 20, 2023 by HeHasRisen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
