Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?

Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

CO2 emissions estimates - Road transport (Minor roads) (LA influence) (8244) Metric type

URI

Help text
This is the estimate in kilotonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (kt CO2e) emissions for road transport (Minor roads) within the scope of influence of Local Authorities.

The full dataset includes all emissions that occur within the boundaries of each local authority; the subset however excludes emissions that authorities do not have any direct influence over, these include: Motorways; EU Emissions Trading System sites; Diesel railways; Land use, Land Use Change, and Forestry (all emissions belonging to the LULUCF Net Emissions). Removing these emissions has a much bigger impact on some Local Authorities than others, as some Local Authorities have a much bigger proportion of emissions from the above sources than others. Road transport fuel use estimates at LA level were compiled by Ricardo Energy & Environment for DECC.
