PROTESTORS against Glasgow's Low Emission Zone (LEZ) have marched through the city.

The city centre is set to become an LEZ for all vehicles next week on Thursday, June 1.

Buses have been subject to the LEZ since phase one was in place on December 31, 2018.

However, we previously reported a legal bid has been launched by a motor trade repair firm in the Townhead area just days before it is due to be enforced.

A Glasgow City Council spokesperson said the council would "vigorously defend any legal action". 

This afternoon, anti-LEZ protestors gathered at the Botanic Garden from 12.30pm before marching towards the steps at Buchanan Galleries from around 1pm. 

Many held signs with statements such as "ULEZ you lose", "Highway robbery; no low emissions zones", and "reject the road usage charge".
