Clean Air Taxi Fund Programme

Other pages in this section

Thank you for showing an interest in the Clean Air Taxi Grant Schemes. Due to the popularity of these schemes, all available funding has been allocated and therefore we are unable to accept any new grant applications at this time. If and when further funding is made available to these schemes, the application process will be opened again.

If you have already applied for a Clean Air Taxi Grant your application will still be considered. The freeze on new applications will not affect your application.

This will assist Bradford licensed vehicle proprietors with the purchase, lease or running costs of a fully electric hackney Carriage or Private Hire Vehicle, this is the highest grant of this type in the UK. Information on how and when to apply will be updated on this page.

The Clean Air Taxi (CAT) Programme has over £4.8m in funding 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).

£4.1m of the remaining funds are set aside for upgrades to fully electric licensed vehicles.

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.
