PARIS, Jan 28 — Which are the most polluted subway lines in London? It will soon be possible to find out, at a glance, thanks to an application developed by Tanya Beri, who has won a 2022/2023 Young Innovators Award for her creation.

The 29-year-old Londoner has even won one of Innovate UK‘s Young Innovators Awards for her project. Her app proposes to provide real-time information to passengers using the British capital’s subway network, so that they can find out which routes are the least polluted. However, they can help reduce passengers’ exposure to pollution, sometimes reducing exposure to fine particles from 220 particles per cubic metre to about 50 particles per cubic metre, the developer toldShe goes on to remind us that the safe limit set by the UK health authorities for healthy air is less than 25 small particles per cubic metre of air.

“The model of trains that we use have until very recently been old, and they still aren’t strong enough to withstand the pollution.” The prize she has now received will allow her and her fellow winners to share grants worth some £1.25 million . This will help fund the development of her application, which is expected to launch in 2023.
