Are Scotland’s cities ready for low emission zones?

Low emission zones are coming to Glasgow from June ahead of Edindburgh, Dundee and Aberdeen. Are Scotland’s cities ready? Also, Vernon Kay and just what is a thrupple?

The move is designed to improve air quality in line with the Scottish government’s vision for the country’s air quality to be the best in Europe. An ultra low emission zone already operates in London, and there are schemes operating in 15 European countries. How will it affect you and your car?
