Over this period, there will be disruption to Heathrow Express and Piccadilly line services. The Elizabeth line will be operating as normal, and inter-terminal transfer services between all terminals will also be completed by these services.

ULEZ expansion - 29 August 2023

London's Ultra Low Emission Zone, or ULEZ, is expanding to encompass all of Greater London, including Heathrow Airport, from the 29 August 2023.

 

The initiative, implemented by Transport for London (TfL), is aimed at reducing air pollution in London, therefore all vehicles entering the airport must meet certain emissions standards in order to avoid paying a daily charge.

 

The daily charge for non-compliant vehicles is £12.50 for most vehicles, including cars, vans, and motorcycles.

 

The charge will be in addition to any other fees or charges associated with entering the airport. The charge only applies when a vehicle is driven within the ULEZ zone, and does not apply to stationary vehicles including when cars are parked at Heathrow.

 

Please note, if you have booked Meet & Greet or Valet Parking with a non-compliant vehicle, and have selected a different exit terminal to your entry terminal, you will be liable for payment of a ULEZ charge to transfer your vehicle to another terminal.

Funding and community partnerships

For Heathrow, being a responsible neighbour is a priority. It is important that we share the benefits of the airport with the communities, families, and organisations that live or operate locally. By investing in our local community we can help to make sure the area around Heathrow is a great place to live. This includes funding local projects and supporting causes that have a social impact. 

Heathrow Community Trust

Heathrow Community Trust (HCT) is the airport’s independent, primary charity partner. HCT has been an integral part of the local community for over 25 years, supporting a range of projects and organisations across nine local boroughs surrounding the airport.
