Implementing a ZEZ-F in a city can be daunting and overwhelming. It can be helpful to consider the shift to zero-emission zones as a process of continuous improvement rather than a one-off project. This updated version of the how-to-guide incorporates the constructive and experience-based feedback received by the TDA and its partners on the first version of the guide. It adds further examples from cities of all sizes from all over the world. This guide is meant to inspire ideas for ZEZ-F in your city, and to provide suggestions for first steps that will help city officials, transportation planners and consultants to get started with the implementation of ZEZ-F.
