Striving to improve Pimlico's air quality

Idling

We share residents’ concerns about the poor air quality in Pimlico. We are delighted that the Council’s #DontBeIdle campaign to persuade more drivers to turn off their engines while parked at the kerb is going from strength to strength.

We now have 14,000 people who have signed the pledge not to idle. Companies such as My Taxi, Deliveroo and National Express have also signed up. We know that a number of coaches sometimes will idle when parked on Eccleston Bridge. We are sending the coach bosses evidence of idling and they will then take this up with the drivers. Please let us know if you see a coach idling and we will send a clear message that Westminster is a no idle zone.
