Ulez in Ireland

[JoshnPen]

We have a 1997 peugeot boxer. How do we pay the ulez in ireland?

 

[Red Sonja]

As far as I'm aware there is no ULEZ in Ireland.

 

[Brains]

The London ULEZ applies to all vehicles, even those with non-UK plates.
TFL can and do chase non UK based owners for payment.

You can pay on line here
Or set up and account so that you can 'forget' about needing to worry.

 

[PaulOH]

Don't think it's arrived in Ireland yet... when are we going to get a dedicated thread on this - members are worried!!

Or simply decide to go nowhere near the ghastly place.

Yeah, plenty of other ULEZs around GB to choose from

Bath Birmingham and Bradford? Shame about Bath......

Not to mention other exciting cities - Bristol, Glasgow, Oxford, Portsmouth and if you can wait a bit longer possibly Manchester, Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Newcastle and Sheffield

As you live in the south east, your world will be getting smaller.

If you dont want to pay, then OK with me, however it rules out everything inside the M25, the Dartford crossing, so if you live north of the Thames, it means the Channel ports will be 100+ mile diversion, or if you live south, then East Anglia will be a 100+ mile diversion.

But maybe Kent and Suffolk are 'ghastly places' as well

Anti pollution/Low congestion zones (by whatever name they use) are creeping out to nearly every city and many larger towns across all of Europe.

It does irk me that they put the boundaries to cover the bypasses.

£100 to go inside the M25 seems pretty steep though

Not sure what you mean. My world starts at Folkestone and then heads mostly south from there. It's a big old world too.

No, that isn't right at all. The Dartford crossing is in ... Dartford. Dartford is in Kent, not London. And the M25 is not the boundary of London. Only two small parts of the M25 are in Khanland, a few miles near Heathrow, and a bit near Havering which Khan wasn't allowed to stick his extremist ULEZ tax on. Basically, if you come to the channel crossings by motorway, you don't have to pay any Khantax

There is nothing in Greater London I want to go and see. I worked there for decades, using the repulsive public transport, and had my fill of the place.

But maybe Kent and Suffolk are 'ghastly places' as well

To some perhaps, but not to me. The best thing about Kent is that it isn't run by an extremist car hater, oh and a lot fewer people go around stabbing each other, which is a plus.

Yeah, and I have three stickers on my bus that mean I can go into those zones. The cost for all three was less than twenty euro. How Khan has the nerve to charge what he wants to charge is a mystery. Probably just greed.

Forgive me but I don't understand? What is all this about the Dartford Crossing? When I went around the M25 a few weeks ago and will do again tomorrow, I saw no signs affecting the M25. Why would anyone have to do a 100mile diversion?
PS. I live in East Anglia.

The Dartford crossing has a congestion toll. Payable here
If you did not pay, then expect a brown envelope on the mat on your return.

Out of interest, if Khan lost the next election and was replaced by a Conservative from the right of the party, do you think that:

• The ULEZ would be scrapped
• The ULEZ would be expanded
• The ULEZ would be shrunk

the Dartford crossing, so if you live north of the Thames, it means the Channel ports will be 100+ mile diversion, o

As said Dartford crossing is not in the trojan horse's ulez. Nor is it even part of the M25.

No it isn't, it is a charge per use. Nothing to do with congestion or a toll. Just a scam on users tagged on when payment for construction was completed.

They cant even get a parliament together never mind a ULEZ zone.

There has been a charge to use the crossing OR the tunnel since it's inception and before the congregation charge was ever thought of, are they calling it a 'congestion charge' now?
I don't think that's what it's called on my account with them?

pure speculation - not fact, again. I wish you would take a more responsible stand in your posts.

I don't live in London, and have no intention to live in London, so I don't care really. You guys vote for whatever muppet you want. All I care about is that Khans ULEZ stays inside London and doesn't mission creep out to nicer places.

A handful of places that I'm not going to miss.

I'm sure we were promised that when the bridge was paid for, the toll would be scrapped and I seem to remember reading, a few years ago, that it had been, so that never happened, did it?

I live 2 miles from the Dartford Crossing and 150 yards inside the dreaded LEZ Zone. They did say that the crossing would be free when paid for. They then xhanged their minds and said monies raised would go towards local roads and another Thames crossing. Traffic is worse than ever.

.... and the other two new river crossings (Silvertown and Gravesend) will both be tolled.
They are also discussing tolling the Blackwall tunnels.

I did hear some of the kent councils are resisting ULEZ?

Blackwall, Silvertown and the Woolwich ferry only affects you if you live inside London. Someone is going to be robbed to pay for more public transport and cycle lanes.
Drivers? It's you!

No sympathy. Londoners voted for this Marxist twice. Now own your decision.

You do realise that pedestrians and cyclists are also drivers. You don't have to stick to just one form of transport.

Sort of. In the borders of Greater London, there are parts that are called Kent. Bromley, Kent &, Orpington Kent etc. They aren't Kent. They used to be, but since 1965, they have been part of London. Five London Boroughs have told Khan that they will not be enforcing the ULEZ in their boroughs.

I was born in Kent, and was a Kentishman until the age of three months. Then some bureaucratic arse changed the boundary and I became a cockney overnight. Became a Kentishman again a few decades later.
