The study, led by Dr Daniela Fecht at Imperial College London, found an 8% reduction in emergency admissions for heart problems and a 6% reduction for breathing problems among central London residents after the T-charge and Ulez took effect, though the respiratory result did not reach statistical significance. Annual admission trends shifted from a 3% increase before the schemes to a 3% decrease afterward, with the findings robust when compared against similar areas.
