Brighton's Low Emission Zone And Vehicle Recycling

Infamous for its bustling Palace Pier and sunny beach, Brighton has always been at the forefront of environmental protection.

2015 Brighton City Council launched a low-emission zone for bus operators across Hove, Castle Square, North Street and Western Road. This low emission zone ensured that buses met Euro 5 standards for emissions across Brighton and Hove.

Moving forward, the UK will introduce a ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars to push more motorists towards cleaner methods of transport.

This will undoubtedly impact road users near Brighton, and at Scrap Local, we’re receiving more enquiries from people looking to scrap their high-emission vehicles.

Luckily, we work with reliable Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) that safely dispose of Brighton’s scrap cars.
