UK Government launches Road to Zero strategy


The UK government has launched its Road to Zero strategy - and affirmed its ambition that at least half of new cars should be ultra low emission by 2030.

In a statement issued yesterday (9 July), the Department for Transport (DfT) said: "The government has confirmed its ambition to see at least half of new cars to be ultra low emission by 2030 as part of plans to make the UK the best place in the world to build and own an electric vehicle.

"The proposals are outlined in the Road to Zero Strategy, which sets out plans to enable a massive expansion of green infrastructure across the country, reduce emissions from the vehicles already on the UK’s roads, and drive the uptake of zero emission cars, vans and trucks.

"Together, the measures will put the UK at the forefront of a global revolution in motoring and help to deliver cleaner air, a better environment and a strong clean economy."
