is a privately owned van subject to Bradford ULEZ?
« on: »
I have a privately owned van (VW transporter SWB low roof) which is for personal use. It has signage for a removals company I used to run, and I have left the signage even though the company no longer exists.
I have received a good number of fines from Bradford Council in the last couple of years, and I have just seen that private car users are exempt.

Please could people advice if I am liable, and if I am not, how can I let them know that the van is for personal use only?

Also, if I am not liable, what are my chances of claiming back the fines?

Thanks in advance

As this is not a live case this may have to be moved to Flame Pit.


Looking at Bradford website  Clean air zone it looks like you can exempt any vehicle, not just a car.  [ Assuming Clean air zone is synonym for ULEZ ] 

Bradford residents can apply for an exemption from CAZ charges for one private vehicle per applicant of any vehicle Class, in addition to any exemption for motor caravans and motorised horseboxes.

To get an exemption, you must have owned your vehicle before 26 September 2022 and have the V5c (logbook) in your name and address. If you bought it after that date, you can’t get an exemption because this is the cut off point for the exemption scheme. This is the date the Clean Air Zone became live.

Exemptions cannot be backdated.

If a new person owns your vehicle, the exemption will stop working



So OP needs to apply for exemption via above website link.  One vehicle only per applicant.

As this cannot be back dated, any penalty payments previously made can not be claimed back.

As the exemption date ends on 26 September 2022, hopefully OP didn't transfer ownership from company to yourself after this date.

Many thanks.

I am not a Bradford resident, merely staying here for a couple of months for work, so sadly I cannot apply for exemption.
