Monitoring Data from the Air Quality Monitoring Station

The Council uses Automated Air Quality Monitoring Stations (AQMS) to continuously sample the air in order to detect the contamination of pollutants which may be present. This equipment enables us to identify trends and the occasional peaks in the pattern of air pollution, and complements the less sophisticated air pollution monitoring which has been undertaken in the District for many years.

Blaby currently has three monitoring stations. Two of these monitor nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter, the other measures nitrogen dioxide.

The AQMS are currently located at Sandhill Drive, Enderby, Sharnford and Kingsway, Braunstone Town. It is our intention to leave these monitors in these locations for the foreseeable future in order to collect some chunks of data. We currently have two hired stations, these are monitoring at the B4114, Enderby and Leicester Road, Glen Parva.
