Dudley MBC has purchased multiple Zephyr air quality sensors from Enviro Technology Services Ltd in a bid to find out just how polluted the air is around a number of the local schools.
Northfield Road Primary School is located just a short distance from Halesowen Road, which has recently been identified by a ‘Friends of the Earth’ report as one of the most polluted areas in the UK. The sensors are one of a number of initiatives planned by council bosses to wage war on pollution in specific areas of the Borough.
Dudley MBC has seen the value in purchasing the Zephyrs as a tool to help them quantify just how much polluted air the children and local residents are breathing on a daily basis. The Zephyr sensor (a light-weight mobile unit measuring NO2, O3, PM10, PM2.5, and PM1.0 as standard) can be moved around as and when needed, requires minimal maintenance, and carries an attractive price tag, making it the perfect solution for this kind of study.
