Available for over a year
It's one month since the Ultra Low Emission Zone was expanded. It means that anyone driving a non compliant vehicle across the Surrey border has to pay £12.50 a day or face a fine. Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan brought in the charge to improve air quality in the capital. The Surrey Federation of Small Businesses says a lot of their members are struggling with the costs of ULEZ, with some firms having to increase their prices. Jolyon Martin runs Chessington Garden Centre which lies 200 yards inside the border. He's been speaking to James Cannon about the impact the zone has had on his business. Photo Credit: Getty images
