Cambridge City Council - Cambridge Clean Air Zone Feasibility Study

Tender description

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of and options for the implementation of a Clean Air Zone (CAZ) in Cambridge. The study will need to identify the necessary scope of the scheme in terms of geography, that is the area or areas which should be subject to restriction, as well as consider and recommend which vehicle types should be affected by restriction given the relative impacts on emissions at current and predicted traffic levels. It will also need to consider the benefits of charging or not charging for access and make recommendations on the practical implications of implementation such as suitable technologies, systematic support and the time line for implementation including the phasing of implementation and vehicle class restrictions over the medium term (1 to 10years). All of the decisions relating to a CAZ need to be strongly evidence based within the scope of the guidance.
