FOUND: Applications for clean air zone temporary exemptions open - What They Never Told You

Applications for temporary exemptions for the Clean Air Zone have now open, the city's mayor has announced. Groups that can apply for a temporary exemption include those living within the area and those who work within the zone and earn less than £26,000 a year.

The new scheme will be launching on November 28 - over a year late. Bristol City Council is legally required to introduce measures to cut harmful air pollution from vehicles driving in the city centre.

It was confirmed earlier this month that temporary exemptions for the scheme have been extended to the end of March next year. The exemptions were originally due to finish at the end of 2022 - which would have meant they were only in place for just over a month.
