How much does it cost to enter the ultra low emission zone?

The current daily ULEZ charge is £12.50. This applies to all vehicles driven within the zone that do not meet the emissions criteria, including residents' vehicles. However, you do not need to pay the charge if your vehicle is parked and not driven. The daily charge runs from midnight to midnight.
