Transcript: Traffic filters mean healthier air in Oxford! Before: NO2 levels in Oxford’s city centre in 2019. After: Projected levels with the traffic filters. What a difference! Where will this drop come from? Increasing number of electric cars. Electric buses rolled out because of filters. Expected traffic reductions from filters. Why is this important? A 2019 study found that roadside air pollution was stunting lung growth in children by about 14% in Oxford. And that cutting air pollution by 20% would reduce the number of lung cancer cases in Oxford by 6%.
