Councillor Angus Millar discusses the introduction of LEZ to Glasgow on 1st June 2023
Glasgow's Low Emission Zone (LEZ)
Overview
We need to reduce levels of harmful vehicle emissions in our city centre. These can cause health problems, particularly for those most vulnerable.
That's why from 1 June 2023, our Low Emission Zone (LEZ) will come into force.
All vehicles entering the city centre zone area will need to meet the less-polluting emission standards or face a penalty charge.
There are some exemptions and zone residents have extra time to comply.
Fully electric vehicles meet LEZ requirements in Scotland.
Motorbikes and mopeds are not included in the current LEZ schemes and no restrictions will apply.
