An Air Quality Management Area (AQMA) was declared by Order in respect of levels of fine particulates (PM10) and nitrogen dioxide in Masons Lane Bradford on Avon in November 2001. Levels of fine particulates have fallen and are now compliant with UK air quality regulations. As a result, the order establishing the AQMA can be modified to remove fine particulates. The order will remain in place with respect to the annual mean objective for nitrogen dioxide.
