London Congestion Charge - 100% discount for LPG vehicles
continues
uklpg.org. Date: 8th July 2008
UKLPG welcomes the 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.
Mike Chapman, Autogas Manager, said “This is great
news, for London. This decision ensures
that LPG receives continued recognition for the contribution
made to improving the air quality in London”, and went
on to say, “It takes over 120 LPG cars to equal
the fine particles produced by one equivalent diesel
car.”
Motorists running on LPG can be re-assured that not
only are they helping London’s air quality
but are also reducing their carbon footprint compared
with both petrol
and diesel.
LPG autogas is by far the most widely available alternative
fuel in the UK and with the long term government support
on fuel duty the savings have never been greater.
