Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE LONDON low-emission zone (LEZ) will come into force in four days' time. From 4 February all vehicles over 12 tonnes entering the zone, which covers almost everywhere within the M25, must reach Euro-3 particulate levels or have aftermarket equipment which brings them up to this standard.

Vehicles not complying with this standard face fines of up to £1,500.

Transport for London has given operators 28 days' breathing space to comply with the LEZ; it wil only issue warnings durin• this period.

This will come as a relic for many operators who hay contacted Commercial Motor t. report problems with obtainin aftermarket particulate filters i time for the 4 February deadlim Lead times have increased becaus of massive demand and a shortag of raw materials.
