Registration may also give access to other aspects of the www.urbanaccessregulations.eu website as they may develop. See below for our Privacy Policy.

Disclaimer

The purpose of this website is to give information for those needing to access cities with vehicles. We provide information on Access Regulation Schemes (ARS) in Europe. ARS include Low Emission Zones, Congestion Charging or any other scheme or measure where access is regulated or restricted.

The contents of this website are the sole responsibility of Sadler Consultants Europe GmbH and can in no way be taken to reflect the views of the European Union. The European Union endorses the English version of the website.

This website is for your information only. We take no responsibility for any action taken, or not taken, based on information on this website. Neither do we take responsibility for any problems you have or penalties you receive in any access restrictions.

The situation is regularly changing, new schemes are introduced or existing schemes altered. This site is regularly updated and makes reasonable efforts to be complete and accurate, however, this cannot be guaranteed. We can accept no responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information on this website, or for compliance of any individual vehicle with any scheme. We accept no responsibility for any action taken from information on this website. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on each scheme, please check the individual scheme website, which can be found from the city pages as well as the useful links pages.

All Schemes on this website have been officially confirmed as in operation or preparation. This may change, for example the air quality may improve through other means, or the start date may slip. There may also be schemes that are under preparation but not yet officially confirmed, that are not on this website.

We provide automatic translation to help you use the information. We accept no responsibility for the accuracy of translations. We are aware that automatic translations are not ideal, but try to keep our language simple, so the meaning of the translation is as clear as possible.

Information on exemptions are listed for your guide only. They are not officially translated, and we do not update them as often as other aspects of the data. The original on the city/regional/national website is the only accurate source.

The completeness of the different types of scheme varies. Low Emission Zones (LEZs) and Congestion or other urban road Charging Schemes (CS) should be fairly complete. The coverage of the Major Traffic schemes (Key-ARS) does not attempt to be comprehensive or cover every urban area, but to cover as many as possible within the remit of the project. It will include at least the cities over 500,000 population, more being collected over time. If you have information on any schemes, please This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., as it will help us provide more information for you and your colleagues.

Any maps used have been collected from public sources.
