Have your say on our plans to improve Air Quality
We have drafted an Air Quality Action Plan that provides the actions we will take to work towards improving air quality and reducing air pollution in West Northamptonshire.
The draft plan extends the positive improvements in air quality that exist from previous plans and builds on this.
We would like people to have their say on the key proposals and the draft plan generally, and also to gather information to determine peoples understanding of air quality and identify any health-related issues so that this can also be considered in the plan.
Have your say
If you would like further information and to comment on the proposals, please visit Have your say on our plans to improve Air Quality.
