Air pollution breaches
The Air Quality Standards Regulations (2010) sets out the legal safe limits for specific air pollutants.
When a pollutant goes over (breaches) its legal safe limit in one area, it may be a serious health risk to people nearby. Find out what to do if you’re in an area with an active air pollution breach.
Air pollution levels across the UK are measured hourly.
