This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The setting up of a Clean Air Zone in the Greater Manchester area is a matter for the Mayor of Greater Manchester and the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, not the UK Government or Parliament. The Government is therefore not directly responsible for the action this petition calls for.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you. You can find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them, by entering your post code here:

Clean Air Zones are developed in line with principles set by the central UK Government. You can read more about these principles here: www.gov.uk/government/publications/air-quality-clean-air-zone-framework-for-england. If there were specific changes you wanted the Government to make to this framework, you could have a petition about that.
