Madrid's ZBE ruling annulled, city given 20 days to file appeal

The Madrid High Court revisited the low-emission zone (ZBE) ordinance that was previously annulled in 2024 and confirmed its cancellation. The court granted the city a 20‑day window to file an appeal before the decision can be enforced.

This ruling could reshape traffic restrictions and environmental policies across the capital. Municipal officials are now working on drafting a new framework to address urban mobility concerns.
