Mayor has today confirmed ULEZ expansion is going ahead Lorries, buses and coaches all London from October 2020 Cars and vans within North and South Circular from October 2021 Some temporary exemptions eg charity minibuses for extra 2 years www.london.gov.uk/press-releases/mayoral/ultra-low-emission-zone-to-expandHaving re-read it twice it seems to suggest that the April 2019 zone applies to motorbikes (below euro3), petrol cars and vans (below euro4), diesel cars and vans (below euro6). Heavy vehicles (eg buses) will need to meet euroVI (nothing about hybrids) Also says : The Mayor is working with TfL to ensure London’s public transport lead the way in low emissions. TfL is no longer procuring double-deck pure-diesel buses and instead only procuring hybrid, electric or hydrogen buses, with all buses meeting the new standards across London by 2020.

Presumably micro-hybrids will also be acceptable within the ULEZ as the WSDs (on the 44) will be within the expanded zone between Wandsworth and Victoria.

Presumably micro-hybrids will also be acceptable within the ULEZ as the majority of the 44 (with its WSDs) will effectively be within the expanded zone. The expanded ULEZ is for Euro VI diesels or hybrids so the 44 WSD's are unaffected.

Hopefully the mayor against London’s latest crazy approval of the trump balloon will see him voted out of office!

In that case the only route left for them at WH would be the 330.

The 97 could use them, I am not too sure if there are any exceptions like the Brixton one had. The 238 only uses a very small section so might be able to get away with it as well. The 678 had one today as well, although I'm pretty sure that's not exempt

As a result of the new Stratford scheme route 86 and 678 are 100% E400!
This will mean WH Scanias are restricted to the 330 and 97 moving foward unless they get new blinds for the 474!
