Environment-enhancing projects from across Glasgow will share £732,000, as penalties collected through the city’s Low Emission Zone are poured back into local communities.

Eighteen organisations will receive grants of between £20,000 and £50,000 to deliver a broad range of schemes following successful bids to the council’s LEZ Community Support Fund.
