The leader of Leeds City Council has said the city’s planned Clean Air Charging Zone (CAZ) is set to be delayed again, this time due to issues around the coronavirus pandemic.

The measures would mean drivers of non-environmentally friendly HGVs, buses, taxis and private hire vehicles would face a daily charge for using certain roads in and around Leeds City Centre.

Plans first mooted in 2018, had an original target start date of January 2020, but was delayed until the summer, then September of the same year due to problems with a government database computer.
