In July 2014 the Mayor of London released a supplementary planning guidance (SPG) for The Control of Dust and Emissions during Construction and Demolition which aims to manage emissions of particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from construction and demolition activities across major development sites.
The SPG also outlined the new emission standard requirements for the world’s first low emission zone (LEZ) for non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) which came into effect on September 1st 2015.
The role of London boroughs in implementing this guidance is being supported by the Mayors Air Quality Fund in a number of ways; one is through training and dissemination events organised through the London Low Emission Partnership (LLECP).
The first of these events was hosted by King’s College London during the afternoon on the 18th March at the Stamford St Lecture Theatre.
