NEW low emission zones (LEZs) in three major Scottish cities will save lives, the co-leader of the Scottish Greens has said.

Edinburgh, Dundee and Aberdeen have introduced the regulations in the city centres this week, one year after Glasgow did the same.

“If we are to have liveable and clean cities then we need to reduce the numbers of cars on our roads, and LEZs are a big step towards doing that. “I look forward to a time when we can look at expanding this zone and bringing in further measures to keep our streets and lungs free of pollutants.”
