Dave_Q Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Point one: there is already a thread on this: Point two: all the things you have listed also have to comply. yes oui si and Lacquer Peel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schaefft Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 In fact in Newcastle it's specifically the things you mentioned that need to comply, not privately owned vehicles. yes oui si and MiniMinorMk3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierraman Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 They charge the taxis where we live, who then pass the charge on to the passengers. It’s never been about ‘the environment’ it’s been about finding another source of propping up a corrupt council. 500tops, danthecapriman, wesacosa and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoverFolkUs Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Don't worry, it's ULEZ compliant.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meter rat Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Can someone clarify for me? There is a campsite that has now come within the ULEZ. If we visit and arrive on site and park for a few days with out leaving, or re entering the zone. Do we still pay for every day the car is parked on site, until we leave?

Haulage firms have said to supermarkets "We will pass on the cost or stop delivering" Supermarkets have said to The council "when there's nothing on the shelves, it's not our fault" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its £12.50 from when you enter the zone and its valid until 23.59 that same day. The next £12.50 is due when you next drive past a camera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes oui si Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 4 hours ago, New POD said: Haulage firms have said to supermarkets "We will pass on the cost or stop delivering" Supermarkets have said to The council "when there's nothing on the shelves, it's not our fault" Tens of thousands of items on a trailer, that's minute fractions of a penny per item. Empty shelves is absolutely the supermarket's fault. Lacquer Peel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiC Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 4 hours ago, New POD said: Haulage firms have said to supermarkets "We will pass on the cost or stop delivering" And one haulage firm won't charge or have compliant vehicles and pick up those jobs from those that can't. Those that can't will loose business until they either swallow the cost or upgrade their trucks. Haulage is cut throat enough and I can't see them all staying ganged together if there is an opportunity for work that others can't or won't do.

sierraman Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Haulage is a race to the bottom as it is anyway, somebody will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
