<p>The government has allocated £3.5 billion to improve air quality. There are a number
of different ways this is being spent. For those areas identified in the 2017 Air
Quality Plan as eligible for assistance from the clean air fund, it is for local authorities
to consider what grants they may wish to apply for, including support for changes
in transport. The Government’s Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) offers a comprehensive
support package enabling the take up of Ultra Low Emission Vehicles (ULEVs) including
cars, vans, taxis, buses and motorcycles; grants for supporting consumers install
charging infrastructure and funding for local authorities to support those households
without off street parking. There is also support for businesses to install charge
points at workplaces.</p>
