Mayor Sadiq Khan is set to temporarily suspend the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) charge in London for Christmas Day, providing a brief respite for drivers during the festive season. Since August 29, drivers within Greater London have been required to pay a £12.50 daily fee for non-compliant vehicles. However, this fee will be waived for 24 hours on December 25.
The suspension of the ULEZ charge, along with the Congestion Charge, is a move by the Mayor to ease travel for families visiting relatives during Christmas. The majority of drivers who stand to benefit from this suspension are those with pre-2005 petrol and pre-2015 diesel vehicles.
