COVID-19 lockdown and its impact on air quality in London

Since the beginning of lockdown, nitrogen dioxide levels have reduced by around 35 per cent in the Square Mile. When compared to the average reading in January 2020, the air in this area of London is now cleaner by over a third. How will the Mayor ensure that air quality levels do not rapidly rebound now that lockdown has lifted?

On Monday, the London Assembly Environment Committee will discuss the impact of COVID-19 on London’s environment. The Committee will also look at the delivery of environment policies in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The guests are:

• Shirley Rodrigues, Deputy Mayor for Environment and Energy
  
  

Other guests to be confirmed

The meeting will take place on Monday, 20 July 2020 from 12.00pm. In line with government advice, this meeting will take place virtually.
