// Westminster has the highest proportion of deaths attributable to air pollution, excluding the City of London, in the country, a report by the council said.

An air pollution monitoring station in Oxford Street, in the borough, recorded the acceptable limit set for air pollution - 200 micrograms per cubic metre - was broken 1,503 times in 2014. //

People are dying, why not try to improve air quality?

do "traffic marshalls" legally have the power to raise fines?

Seems reasonable to me.

Yes. The 32 Local Authorities in London are responsible for local road enforcement in their area. Major trunk roads are managed by Transport for London in the capital. Parking marshals can issue fines, so pollution marshals can.

We shall see how you feel when some jobsworth sticks one on you for sitting at the lights!

YMB, It doesn't say anywhere in the article that this has / will happen. Is this a figment of your imagination?
