The story
Owners of the most polluting cars will have to pay an extra £10 to drive in central London from today.
The T-charge, or toxicity charge, will apply to older diesel and petrol vehicles in what’s been described as the toughest emission standard of any world-ranking city.
It’ll be levied on top of the congestion charge. Some health charities have welcomed the move, others say it doesn’t go far enough.
