Steps are taken to notify non-compliant vehicle keepers about an upcoming CAZ, through sending out Early Notice letters. These letters are sent, before the CAZ is launched, to keepers of non-compliant vehicles to alert them that they will be subject to a charge. Local authorities can also offer a period of ‘soft enforcement’ after the CAZ is launched, in which motorists receive a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) but have a period in which they are only required to pay the CAZ charge.
