Countdown to Low Emission Zone in Antwerp
Fleets have just weeks until the entire city centre of Antwerp in Belgium and part of Linkeroever will become a Low Emission Zone.
As of 1 February 2017, the most polluting cars will no longer be welcome in the city as of this date. This means that diesel vehicles categorised Euro 3 without particulate filter or older will not be allowed in the city alongside petrol/natural gas/LPGs models before the Euro standards were introduced. Electric, hydrogen and plug-in hybrid cars below 49g/km are allowed into the LEZ.
Specific professional vehicles including emergency services will be exempt from the rules.
In 2020 and 2025, the LEZ requirements will become more stringent.
