Low Emission Zones - Scotland
Low Emission Zones (LEZs) are designed to improve air quality and were introduced across Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow.
Planning continues at a national and local authority level.
Local grace periods now apply until enforcement begins.
In Glasgow, the LEZ enforcement started on 1 June 2023 (1 June 2024 for residents within the zone)
Dundee will start enforcement on 30 May 2024
Aberdeen will start enforcement on 1 June 2024
Edinburgh will start enforcement on 1 June 2024
The Scottish Government will continue to develop support and funding to help people and businesses meet LEZ requirements.

Data quality info
- Quality Scope
- Dataset
- Statement
-
This dataset was amalgamated, optimised and published by the Spatial hub.
The following quality assurance checks and corrections are carried out on the data:
- Polygons are dissolved/ aggregated by key name and local authority.
- The minimum polygon area allows in the data is 25 square meters
- Checks for invalid geometry types
- The maximum angle for any spikes is 3 degrees
- Any duplicate geometry is removed from the data
- Duplicate key names for polygons are not removed
- Polygons with no key names are not removed
- Checks for basic geometry i.e. self-intersection
