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.

Noise Action Plan

The Noise Action Plan sets out how Heathrow plans to manage and reduce the impact of aircraft noise over a five-year period from 2019-2023. It goes beyond the requirements of European legislation by considering actions which will manage ground and air noise for all those communities affected.

The Noise Action Plan includes comprehensive summaries of noise regulations applicable at Heathrow and our Framework for Noise Management. We have 52 actions and commitments over this five-year period.

The Annexes document presents a summary of the outcomes of our previous Noise Action Plan which has been independently audited (Annex 13), descriptions of how the actions have evolved (Annexes 13 and 16) and responses to comments from the public during the 2018 consultation on our draft Noise Action Plan (Annex 15).
