Clean Air Taxi Fund Programme

Thank you for your interest in the clean air taxi grants schemes.
Due to unprecedented demand, all our clean air vehicle grants schemes are now closed to new applications.
If you have made a grant application, please do not upgrade/replace your vehicle until an offer of a grant is confirmed. Even if you meet the eligibility criteria, there may not be funds remaining to offer you a grant.
Applications are being processed in date order of receipt. Once all remaining funds are allocated, all other applications will be held on a waiting list or rejected.

The Clean Air Taxi (CAT) Programme has limited funds remaining to help the Bradford licensed taxi trade to upgrade their vehicles to meet Clean Air Zone (CAZ) Standards or upgrade to a fully electric vehicle (EV).

Grants range from £3,200 up to £10,000, the CAT Programme helps cover the costs of upgrading to a CAZ compliant vehicle or towards the running costs of a fully electric vehicle (EV).

With daily charges for non-compliant taxis now that the Clean Air Zone is in operation, find out more about how you can upgrade to a compliant or fully electric licensed vehicle.

The Clean Air Taxi Find programme is now split into two categories:

  • For the purchase of a non-fully electric replacement vehicle or retrofit solution to an existing vehicle to Clean Air Zone compliance standards.
  • For assistance with the running costs of a fully electric vehicle. The fully electric vehicle can either be owned or leased (minimum 2 years lease from the date the Terms and Conditions are signed) by the grant applicant.
