Tehran’s Traffic Police announced that the Air Pollution Control scheme, currently underway in the capital, will most probably undergo some modifications in the new Iranian year (starting March 20, 2020). 
After prolonged debates over the advantages and disadvantages of APC, the traffic police held meetings with urban experts and authorities to remove its deficiencies and recommend modifications to the scheme for the next fiscal year, ISNA reported. 
Tehran Police Chief Hossein Rahimi added that the modifications will be implemented after Tehran Municipality approves and finalizes the recommendations.
To curb traffic and air pollution, TM's Transportation Council held talks with environmentalists and urban planners, before launching the APC scheme on June 22, 2019.
