The Clean Air Villages project aims to reduce emissions in 10 hotspots of poor air quality across five London boroughs. Within these hotspot villages we are working with businesses and communities to make their deliveries and servicing more efficient, using both individual and collective action.

Recognising local characteristics, each village requires a different solution. CRP is creating low and zero emission directories, helping businesses share suppliers with their neighbours, and even trialling a shared electric van.

Case studies produced by the Clean Air Villages project demonstrate various initiatives that help engage with the business community.  Encouraging behaviour change that will result in improved local air quality.  Please note that some of these case studies highlight pre-existing best-practice initiatives.

Clean Air Villages is funded by the DEFRA central government Clean Air Grant with match funding from the participating boroughs.
