Hope Street recorded an annual average above the legal limit for diesel pollution.
Last year was the first year that Glasgow did not breach air pollution limits, excluding the impact of the pandemic in 2020.
Legal air quality standards came into force in 2010, yet had previously been broken every single year since except 2020 when the lockdowns resulted in a big drop in car journeys. One of the biggest improvements was on Hope Street, in 2021 it recorded an annual average above the legal limit for diesel pollution, but it is still one of the most polluted streets in the country.Now every bus going through the city centre has to meet the minimum emission standard, with private cars to follow in June this year.
"The provisional data show that the Low Emission Zones and the Scottish Government’s hefty subsidies for operators to buy new buses are having an immediate impact.
