The Netherlands is accelerating its efforts to curb urban air pollution by expanding zero emission zones (ZEZ) for freight transport in major cities. As part of a broader strategy to promote cleaner mobility, these zones restrict access to vehicles that produce no tailpipe emissions, aiming to reduce harmful pollutants and greenhouse gases in densely populated areas. The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) highlights the country’s pioneering approach, which combines regulatory measures, technological innovation, and stakeholder collaboration to transform urban freight into a more sustainable sector. This article explores how the Netherlands’ zero emission zones are shaping the future of cleaner city logistics and setting a benchmark for other nations to follow.
