A lawyer claims most air quality targets had been met prior to new low emission zone rules.
A new legal challenge to Glasgow's low emission zone has claimed the measure was illegal and unnecessary.
The second phase of the scheme - which started operating in June - aims to improve air quality by limiting which vehicles can enter the area. The report found that air quality aims were achieved in phase one and the second phase impacting other vehicles would not lead to any further improvement in air quality.
He told the hearing that 25 out of 27 of the stations had recorded "downwards trends" of NO2 in recent years.
