There is a London Underground station on the same street.

Urban driving in Canning Town may reduce fuel efficiency due to increased braking and accelerating, which also places greater strain on your engine. Slow-moving traffic reduces the airflow through your car's radiator, making the cooling system work harder, so you should check the coolant level regularly and top up as needed. Your brakes and suspension will also likely wear down quickly as you navigate busy roads with potholes. Since driving in Canning Town can be tough on your car, following a regular servicing schedule is even more important.

Canning Town is in London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and Low Emission Zone (LEZ), both of which are designed to reduce air pollution in the city. The ULEZ operates 24 hours a day, every day except Christmas Day, and excludes the M25 motorway. It charges drivers of cars, vans, motorcycles and specialist vehicles that don't meet the emissions standards £12.50 a day. The LEZ also covers most of Greater London and specifically targets drivers of the most polluting diesel vehicles. It is enforced year-round, and the amount you pay varies. It usually ranges from £100-300 depending on your vehicle, and you can pay online. This guide explains everything you need to know about ULEZ and LEZ.

The same applies to electric car repairs.There are some key differences between EV servicing vs petrol engine servicing. Electric vehicles need servicing less frequently because they have fewer moving parts than traditional internal combustion cars, so fewer components require attention. However, regular electric car maintenance is essential, and you should always stick to the intervals laid out in your servicing schedule.Regarding EV vs hybrid car servicing, while electric cars are cheaper to service, hybrids are often more expensive than regular diesel or petrol cars because they have both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor that needs maintenance.
