A simple way to contribute to the quality of our air is by turning off your engine whist waiting stationary in your car.
We are encouraging parents to do this when waiting outside their child’s school. By turning off your engine you will help keep the air cleaner and your child’s lungs healthy. You will also save on fuel!
In some areas fines may be issued where a person is found idling for a period of time (after being advised by an authorised officer to turn their engine off). Signs will be displayed to mark the zones.
The signage will be rolled out in 6 phases, starting with those schools in the areas with the poorest air quality.
