The judge said William Paton's losses were in the "thousands, not the millions of pounds" and were justified
The second phase of the low emission zone - which started operating in June 2023 - aims to improve air quality in Glasgow city centre by limiting what vehicles can enter the area. At a hearing earlier this month, Advocate Lord Davidson of Glen Clova KC told judge Lady Poole that the local authority had failed to follow established legal tests before making its decision to introduce the LEZ.Lord Davidson said that available data showed that air quality in the city centre had been improving in recent years and that this trend was set to continue, leaving no need for an LEZ to be introduced inn Glasgow.
She added: "It was not a mistake of fact for Glasgow City Council to reach its conclusion merely because other methodologies might be applied by other people to reach a different conclusion." Lord Davidson previously told the court there were 27 stations in Glasgow city centre monitoring levels of nitrogen dioxide - the gas which the local authority hopes to reduce.
She said the business loss was in the "thousands, not millions of pounds" and was weighed against "strong collective interests in complying with legal obligations as to air quality".
