@dwm220263 In 2019/20 £7.9 million grant funding was provided to local authorities to support the delivery of infrastructure schemes on the broad aspect of sustainable transport to support the delivery of LEZs. Park and ride projects were included in the range of schemes funded.

@FelicityM Minimum standards for LEZs are Euro 6/VI for diesel vehicles & Euro 4/IV for petrol vehicles. Boundaries will be based on specific, local needs. There are no current plans to include the Tay Bridge within the Dundee LEZ boundary. Register for updates at https://t.co/XxkBll1buC
