seems to be a mixture of both, locally created and regional crap.

if you compare the data at the roadside stations (especially the NOx way out of limits, but SO² low in comparison) and the general stations (SO² and RSP extremely high) which is mainly coal powerplant pollution (from here and north of the border) you get the "big picture"
Ozone is a "secondary pollutant" - it is not emitted but created by sunlight exposure of all that crap..

(edit at 23:00 loc: as traffic reduces at night time so will the NOx levels)
