The Minister for Ecological Transition is in Toulouse this Monday afternoon a few days before the entry into force of the ZFE. It will intervene with economic actors and elected officials.
The Mobility Orientation Laws (LOM) and then Climate & Resilience Laws have made it compulsory to set up low emission zones (ZFE) from 2021 to combat air pollution by fine particles. These are perimeters in which traffic will be regulated according to the Crit’Air sticker. The metropolis of Toulouse will officially launch its own on March 1st.
It will first concern the most polluting vans and vans (classified Crit’Air 5 from March 1, 2022 then Crit’Air 4 from September 1, 2022). The traffic restrictions will then be extended to private vehicles with the same classification on January 1, 2023 and then to all vehicles classified Crit’Air 3 on January 1, 2024.
During a trip this Monday to Toulouse, the Minister of Ecological Transition, Barbara Pompili, must intervene on the ZFE file. She will meet this afternoon with the economic actors of the metropolis to clarify the conditions for its implementation.
The ZFE is in fact the subject of dispute, in particular on the part of automotive professionals and users who do not have the means to acquire a new, less polluting vehicle.
Accompanying measures have been put in place by Toulouse Métropole to help
motorists to acquire less polluting vehicles. This aid can go up to 10,000 euros for professionals and 5,000 euros for individuals.
