Sadiq Khan, The Mayor of London issued air pollution warnings at bus stops, tube stations and roadsides on Wednesday night to alert millions of Londoners that they are in danger of breathing in toxic fumes.
It is the first time that the alerts have been made since Sadiq Khan pledged to tell people in the capital when pollution was harmfully high.
Anyone experiencing discomfort such as sore eyes, a cough or sore throat was advised to consider reducing their activity, particularly outdoors.
Mr Khan said: "Londoners need to know when the city is suffering from high pollution levels so they can take any necessary appropriate measures to protect themselves from poor air quality.
"This is particularly crucial for Londoners who are vulnerable, such as asthma sufferers."
