The newly established local law restricts the entry of the oldest and most polluting vehicles to the city centre - and will gradualy tighten the ban every two years. Numerous exemptions aply, though.

From 1 July, older cars will be banned from the centre of Warsaw in what will be Poland's first "clean transport zone".

The city has launched a website allowing drivers to check if their car is among those affected https://t.co/AhyMdK8Dci
