The study, published as an open-access paper in the journal Environmental Pollution , examined trends in air pollution over a ten-year period spanning 2005 to 2014, using data collected from 65 roads. Overall, there was a decrease in total traffic between 2005 and 2014, mainly explained by the reduction in cars and taxis.

Consequently, vehicle emissions have become an increasingly conspicuous contributor to air pollution in Chinese urban areas. Despite the fact that China has made much progress in setting up standards regulating new vehicle emissions and fuel quality, the understanding of environmental performance of in-use vehicles has been rather poor.
