The scheme is going to impact on keyworkers,Disabled, Employed workers,Business owners, Taxi drivers and other transport businesses and residents within each cities Zone. Glasgow hasn't even given anyone the chance to pay as they enter like London,nor has Glasgow City Council given any alternative parking locations for residents , workers or visitors alike, outside of the zone.  The scheme is due to begin in June and already the interest free loan to purchase an electric car is no longer available.

Parents of disabled children have asked for dispensation from the council and have been refused ,they have been told to use public transport to get their children to school etc as have carers with disabled clients.Many people who work and live in the city will suffer punitive damage  if this goes ahead as many  cannot afford to purchase another vehicle or even go into debt to obtain a sanctioned vehicle that will conform to the Councils permitted stipulations. The scrappage scheme is also disgusting if you currently have a vehicle worth more than £2,000. The council have already set out the fine table, up to a maximum of £480.00 ,which will double each time you enter the " zone "

This is going to impact not only residential lives but also businesses,workers and all public services alike,people will refuse to enter Glasgow or any other city and staff will no doubt have to give up their jobs.Over 70% of residents and businesses balloted last year said they did not want a LEZ zone for Glasgow but the City Council see it as a money making deal to bring in money that central government won't give them.

If the Council do not give people the option to pay upon entering the zone then this is going to affect businesses,transport,residential and footfall in every city. Councils have to find another way to plump up their coffers because this is nothing to do with cleaning the air.
