A car intended for official Renfrewshire Council business does not meet the standards for Glasgow’s low emission zone (LEZ), it has been revealed.
Environment chiefs confirmed the civic car is non-compliant and won’t be used in the LEZ, which kicked in at the start of June to drive pollution down in the city centre.
But the council has devised an “interim solution” that would see one of its electric cars used for civic duties in the neighbouring authority or if necessary an eligible executive vehicle hired for more formal events.
