Transport for London (TfL) has come under fire for refusing to disclose crucial information regarding the cost and extent of criminal damage inflicted upon Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) cameras, prompting a formal complaint to the Information Commissioner. The decision by TfL to withhold this information has raised concerns about transparency and accountability.

The controversy stems from Vandals who identify themselves as “blade runners” and have taken credit for sabotaging ULEZ cameras. These acts of vandalism have been ongoing since the ULEZ scheme was expanded into greater London in the summer of 2023. In addition to cameras, ULEZ vans have also been targeted, leading to a significant disruption in the enforcement of anti-pollution measures.
