Commercial goods vehicles conforming to BS-IV or lower emission standards will be banned from entering Delhi from November 1, except those running on CNG or electricity, the Gurugram traffic police said on Friday.
The restriction will apply to Light Goods Vehicles (LGV), Medium Goods Vehicles (MGV), Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGV), trucks and other buses, according to the instructions issued by the traffic police.
The exemption will cover CNG and electric vehicles, as well as diesel buses and trucks meeting BS-VI emission standards. The restriction will also apply to vehicles operating on All India Tourist Permits (AITPs) and other service arrangements, while Delhi-registered buses will be exempted, the advisory said.
The Gurugram traffic police has urged transporters, drivers and bus operators to verify vehicle emission standards and registration details and ensure compliance with the prescribed rules before entering Delhi.
The adviser said the measure was aimed at controlling air pollution and protecting the environment.
