Low Emission Zone: Glasgow LEZ fines ‘unenforceable’ – tribunal

So far, the council has made £478,560 from LEZ fines and the council said it is owed an outstanding £830,070.

The number of fines currently unpaid for penalties issued from June to September is at 7,213.

Since the LEZ’s introduction on 1 June, more than 20,000 fines have been issued.

This includes 27 fines on vehicles owned by the council itself, which the council said have to be paid for by the drivers.

BBC Scotland News previously reported that in September, 89 vehicles received the maximum £960 fine, imposed when the same vehicle is penalised for the fifth time.

Additionally, there were 83 drivers on their fourth offence in September, costing £480.

Similar schemes are due to be introduced in Edinburgh, Dundee and Aberdeen next year.
