UKLPG has welcomed a decision by London Mayor Boris Johnson to continue the alternative fuel discount in London following the cancellation of the proposed CO2 emissions related congestion charging.
“The Mayor made it clear in his election manifesto that he would not progress with the proposed £25 congestion charge and asked the High Court to quash the decision made by Ken Livingstone,” said Kulveer Ranger, director for transport policy.
Mike Chapman, autogas manager at UKLPG, said: “This is great news, both for London and lpg autogas. This decision ensures that lpg receives continued recognition for its contribution to improving the air quality in London. It takes over 120 lpg cars to equal to the fine particles produced by one equivalent diesel car.”
