Communications related to Clean Air Zones (CAZ) are the responsibility of local authorities. However, under the Clean Air Zone Framework, a national standard notification was established through the requirement to delineate zones by use of standard signs along major access routes.

In addition, early notice letters are issued to owners where their vehicles drive in a CAZ prior to the activation of charging. These measures help road users to identify and understand that they need to check whether their vehicle is compliant.
