Green Party's Douglas Johnson said the zone in Sheffield will make the city's air cleaner.
A Green Party councillor has said a new clean air zone in Sheffield will rid the city of "old, polluting vehicles" when it comes into force.
Mr Johnson, who represents the City ward, said central government required the council to act due to poor air quality levels."Newer vehicles are much cleaner than old, polluting vehicles. So the move is to get those old vehicles off the road, and that benefits everyone," he told BBC Radio Sheffield. "We in the dealership and the car park are not in the clean air zone, the only road into our dealership, which is 120 yards , is in the CAZ," he said.
