To be fair this is a weekday ban. Not at all surprising to see in European city centers...they have been contemplating banning internal combustion vehicles entirely in certain high density urban areas over there.

There's always more to the story.

Any ban is unacceptable.

Keep a sharp eye out this coming November for more on this topic. This excerpt comes directly from the UN agenda 2030 language on &quot;Sustainable Transport&quot;.

<span style="font-weight: bold">&quot;To develop concrete recommendations for more sustainable transport systems that can address rising congestion and pollution worldwide, particularly in urban areas, and are actionable at global, national, local and sector levels. The policy recommendations, to be developed by the HLAG-ST, are expected to be reflected in a global sustainable transport outlook report that will be released in a first international conference on sustainable transport in November 2016.&quot;</span>

Update-Agenda 2030 is going effective now with a 10 year delay.

England is instituting its ban on Gas vehicles effective 2040.
