answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2023 answer text <p>Our Zero Emission Vehicle Transition is expected to have a transformative effect on air quality right across our country. Over time, this transition to electric vehicles, plus the increasing proportion of newer petrol and diesel vehicles which emit less pollution than older petrol and diesel vehicles, will mean that levels of nitrogen dioxide will continue to fall. Once nitrogen dioxide concentrations meet legal limit values and Government is confident these levels will be maintained without the measure, National Highways will be able to remove the 60mph speed limit introduced to manage poor air quality on the westbound carriageway.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 05/07/2023 14:29:25 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2023 answer text <p>This section of the M4 has dangerous air quality, above the legal limit for nitrogen dioxide of 40µg/m³. The speed restriction is in place to help address that. It is expected to improve in time, which will, in due course, allow the restriction to be removed.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North West Durham answering member printed Mr Richard Holden question first answered 05/06/2023 13:41:00 answering member 4813 label Biography information for Mr Richard Holden

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/06/2023 answer text <p>The 2002 Statutory Instrument set speed limits for sections of the M4 between J1 and 3 (various sections at 40mph, 50mph and 60mph). There is a recent SI that set the speed limit between J3 – J4 and this was to manage the air quality for this section so that it was compliant. The M4 between J3 -12 is a smart motorway and therefore the area between this stretch without a fixed speed limit is subject to a Variable Mandatory Speed Limit (VMSL).</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman grouped question UIN 186508 question first answered 01/06/2023 10:27:49 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
