One-stop website on driving in European cities

Complete multilingual website with full details of Low Emission Zones, Urban Road Charging and other city Access Regulations

EMMENDINGEN, GERMANY, December 9, 2014 /EINPresswire.com/ -- One-stop website on driving in European cities
Complete multilingual website with full details of Low Emission Zones, Urban Road Charging and other city Access Regulations
Emmendingen, 9th December 2014. The CLARS Platform, run by Sadler Consultants Ltd on behalf of the European Commission, has announced the launch of a unique website supporting those that need to drive into European town and cities. The website gives haulage and travel companies, as well as tourists and ordinary drivers, all the information they require on all Urban Access Regulations, in one place, on one click, in multiple languages.
Many cities have Urban Access Regulation Schemes (ARS) as part of measures to reduce congestion, air pollution and noise. This might be by a congestion charge, a Low Emission Zone where cleaner vehicles can enter or by limiting the times different types of vehicles can enter. However, those who need to bring goods, services and people into the city by vehicle need to know how to gain access. Coach operators need to know where they can bring tourists, those delivering goods need to know when, or with what vehicle, they can deliver.
www.urbanaccessregulations.eu is the solution vehicle operators have long called for and the only resource of its kind. Only www.urbanaccessregulations.eu gives all the information you need for Europe. Where are these zones? Can our vehicles drive into them? Do I have to register before I drive in, if so where? How much does it cost? All these and more answered in a user-friendly, regularly updated website.
Now for the first time, information on the main access regulations in Europe's towns and cities are collected together in a clear and comprehensive way, as well as in your language. For example the Rome ZTL, the London Lorry Control Scheme or Budapest's protected and restricted zones, and many more.
www.urbanaccessregulations.eu provides details of the 268 Low Emission Zones in Europe and the 14 urban road charging schemes. Now it also gives full information on 42 major access regulation schemes, and will provide details of more schemes in the coming months. Now details of 8000 towns and cities with access, weight, height, width or length restrictions, are now available on fully interactive maps.
Need information on the move? www.urbanaccessregulations.eu is now optimised to work well for smartphones and tablets, as accessible as you would expect from an app, to make information easily available on the move.
CLARS also provides support to towns and cities in operating Access Regulation Schemes, with a free members platform for public authorities. This platform helps support authorities operating urban access regulations, by best practice, sharing experience and knowledge.
Lucy Sadler says “It is important to us that users can rely on the information we provide, so it is constantly checked and updated. It is also important to us that the website is user-friendly, so information is given within 1 click from our homepage. We provide an interactive GIS map so the cities of interest are easily found, we also have a quick guide look-up table providing an overview of the schemes on our homepage so that visitors can immediately get the information they need.”

Notes:
www.urbanaccessregulations.eu has 4 types of data:
Low Emission Zones where access is regulated by vehicle emissions. Vehicles entering the zone must meet the emissions standards given.
Urban Road Charging where access is regulated by payment. Vehicles are generally allowed in, but need to pay a charge to enter the city area.
Major Access Regulation Schemes (key-ARS) where access is regulated by other methods. For example where access is allowed at certain times of the day or only permits are needed and granted for certain types of vehicles.
These schemes are also known as Traffic Restrictions, Access Control Schemes, Permit Schemes or in Italy ZTLs.
Physical Regulations (p-ARS) where access regulated by vehicle type, weight, height, width, length or weight by axle. Details are shown on the map when zoomed into the city or town of interest, after free registration directly or with facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn.
