The Low-emissions Zone of Strasbourg

On the 1st November 2017, a so-called emergency low-emissions zone (ZPA) was also introduced in Strasbourg.  Both French and foreign drivers may enter the activated low-emissions zone only with a valid Crit'Air sticker of emissions classes E, 1, 2 and 3. Vehicles with a lower emissions class or without the sticker will be banned from entering the zone.

As in Germany, Austria and other European countries, France is seeking to improve the environment and the quality of life of its residents in larger cities.
