What is the Road to Zero?
As you might already know, the Road to Zero is the government’s long-term strategy to achieve cleaner road transport. Its goals include:
- Putting the UK at the leading edge of low-emission and electric vehicle (EV) design and production.
- Only permitting the selling of new cars and vans that are effectively zero emission.
- Accelerating the adoption of fuel-efficient motoring by business fleets, company car drivers, and private motorists.

Risks of non-compliance for those involved in fleet management
If your business requires vehicle movements near cities like London, Bristol, and Birmingham, it’s likely you’ll already understand the risks of non-compliance with ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone), LEZ (Low Emission Zone), and CAZ (Clean Air Zone) regulations.
However, the government’s commitment to a zero-emission future means that new rules, regulations, and deadlines may soon be on the horizon.
Staying up to date means you can avoid the risk of:
- Fines for non-compliance
- Loss of contracts
- Reputational damage
- Increased operating costs
- Legal action
