Air quality action plan consultation

In South Lanarkshire we generally have good and improving air quality however there are some localised air pollution hotspots identified in our towns. We have declared air quality management areas in these hotspots.

An air quality action plan was adopted in 2019, including measures to improve air quality. This air quality action plan has now been updated.

Cleaning up our air isn’t easy, and there is a lot of work happening on an international, national, and local level to make sure that pollution doesn’t get worse. However, as our roads continue to fill with more and more vehicles, keeping the air clean and preventing air pollution becomes ever more challenging. We can all do our bit to help improve air quality. More information is available via our air quality story map.
