William Paton says the ban on high-polluting vehicles will have a huge impact on his business.

In general, the new rules mean petrol cars made before 2005 and diesels built before September 2014 will not be allowed in the zone.

Mr Paton added that about 35% of the vehicles that come into his garage are considered "high-polluting" under the new rules, meaning he could lose a third of his customers. Donald McLeod, of the Night Time Industries Association, said the new regulations were creating a "low economy zone". A homeless charity which said the zone would affect its ability to feed vulnerable people in the city centre received an exemption on Wednesday evening.
