They have already published a directory where you will find all the rules of the Low Emission Zones in Spain that are currently operational.
On January 1, 2023, the rule came into force that requires all municipalities with more than 50,000 inhabitants to have their own Low Emission Zone (ZBE), as has been the case for years in Madrid and Barcelona. However, it is still not entirely clear which cities have implemented their LEZs, which regulations are applied in them, and which ones are not yet fined.
And it is that each municipality is responsible for drafting and putting into practice the rules and restrictions of access and mobility in their own ZBE. They are based, as in the rest of Spain, on the famous DGT labels, but each city determines how to act in these restricted areas, which can lead to confusion among drivers.
They publish a directory with all the regulations of the Low Emission Zones of Spain
Finding a place that gathers all this information, vital for some users such as transport professionals, is complicated. Luckily, the Spanish logistics employers’ association has published a directory with all the regulations for the Low Emission Zones in Spain that are already operational.
UNO, the Business Organization for Logistics and Transport of Spain, has already activated a directory in which you can find all the Sustainable Mobility Ordinances in force in Spanish municipalities with more than 50,000 inhabitants. This free access portal, (in this link you have it) seeks to facilitate the development of daily activities in large Spanish cities.
The directory allows you to select the desired municipality and access the draft or current regulations that contain all the specifications and regulations of the Low Emission Zone, such as the scope of action, mobility restrictions or signage, among others.
“As employers in the sector, we are obliged to facilitate the work carried out by our companies within cities, helping to interpret a legislative framework that, on occasions, far from being accessible, makes it even more difficult to carry out their activity in an environment that is already very complex,” says Francisco Aranda, president of UNO Logística.
