Southwark celebrates Camberwell low emission bus zone

16 November 2018

Southwark Council welcomes TfL’s announcement about the introduction of a new Camberwell Low Emission Bus Zone.  Only buses that meet the cleanest emission standards will operate within the new Low Emission Bus Zone, delivered through a combination of new and retrofitted vehicles. TfL say that the busses will be in place by the end of 2019.

Cllr Richard Livingstone said: “We have been making the case for introducing cleaner buses in Southwark for some time now, and we are delighted by the announcement from TfL, promising 380 cleaner buses, to run from Camberwell to New Cross. This is a huge step forward in reducing the level of air pollution in the borough. Alongside the council’s new electric vehicle charging points and cycle ways, this new zone will help improve air quality in Southwark, which we know really matters to our residents.”
