People never stop talking about EPZ. According to a report presented on Monday by Frans Urbain, the government is proposed to double the subsidies that the state provides for the purchase of less polluting vehicles to make Low Emission Zones (ELZs) more ‘acceptable’.
The association, which represents the major cities of France, also offers to promote the purchase of these vehicles by providing interest-free loans AND by creating a “one-stop shop” that brings together all available helpwhich differ from one city to another, and where to combine them all is a real obstacle course.
It is also proposed to provide benefits to “small drivers” who rarely use a car, and to extend the right to state subsidies to residents of areas adjacent to the VZZ, who are also affected.
The SEZ is in disarray
During a press conference, the Minister for Environmental Transition, Christophe Bechaux, said that the ministry will draw inspiration from this report to present measures aimed at ensuring “admissibility” social during the creation of ZOP in the fall.
The minister emphasized that the purpose of the ZEP is not that “hurt the French” no with “We create yellow vests”but reduce air pollution-related deaths.
Several elected officials are offering alternatives
In recent months, senators, deputies and environmental associations have increased the number of proposals regarding the admissibility of the ZOP. The National Association (RN) and the Republicans (LR) proposed to remove them, while La France Insoumise is in favor of a moratorium. Recently, several PS elected officials have also proposed alternatives with an overhaul of the Crit’Air sticker system.
This is what France Urbaine also suggests in its report with the evolution of the Crit’Air sticker to take into account the actual level of pollution of each vehicle after the year of its registration.
It also suggests strengthening mobility alternatives such as buses, regional trains (RER), bicycles and car sharing. As for professionals, heavy trucks and light commercial vehicles with a Crit’Air Class 2 sticker will be allowed to move by 2030.
