More than one in 20 deaths in Essex are estimated to be linked in some part to air pollution and it is the largest environmental risk to public health in the UK.
The new draft strategy has been jointly developed by all district, borough and city councils across Essex, as well as Essex County Council and the two unitary councils, Southend-on-Sea City Council and Thurrock Council.
It sets out actions the Essex Air Quality Consortium plans to take to improve air quality in Essex and help reduce the impacts of air pollution on people’s health.
