Bath Clean Air Zone — Approved Retrofit Certificate Held
Bath's Clean Air Zone allows buses, coaches, taxis, and heavy goods vehicles to enter if they hold a valid certificate from the government-approved retrofit scheme (called CVRAS). This scheme certifies that pollution-reducing equipment has been fitted to your vehicle. If your vehicle had one of these certificates on the date you got the ticket, the penalty charge should be cancelled.
