I live 500m from the LEZ. You’re pushing diesel cars into more residential areas and making it more difficult for residents to park.
What are @Edinburgh_CC doing about supporting infrastructure for EV charging points in these areas??
Have you seen these signs popping up around Edinburgh? They mark the boundary of our #LowEmissionZone, which we’ll begin enforcing on 1 June. Find out more about the boundary, who’s affected and how you can prepare edinburgh.gov.uk/lezworks
ALT A Low Emission Zone road sign which reads 'Low Emission Zone. LEZ. Exemptions apply'. Below is a smaller sign reading 'Enforcement from 1 June 2024'. In the background is a blue sky with the roofs and upper floors of tenements on either side.

Very interesting short film about kidney donation. Think I spotted a certain @gabriel_oniscu sporting a hand lamp for a fleeting moment!
