The order to pay court costs comes after the anti-ULEZ coalition lost its court fight to prevent the expansion in July and the zone was duly enlarged in August.

A council which brought a legal challenge against Sadiq Khan over his expansion of London's ultra low emission zone has been forced to pay £147,000 in court costs after losing the case.

But the Mayor of London and Transport for London came out on top on against the Tory councils - all of which will have to pay fees after the loss. This figure includes a £100,000 contribution to TfL costs and a £39,528.20 contribution to the five councils' total costs.Justice Jonathan Swift said in his judgement the the Mayor had the lawful power to order the expansion of the ULEZ.

But "it can fairly be said that some parts of the material published for the purposes of the consultation require careful reading".
