New rules should be introduced to control the spread of dockless e-bikes across London, say transport chiefs.
Transport for London wants e-bikes to be regulated in a similar way to the e-scooters that can be hired under a government-backed trial. This would tackle the chronic problem of e-bikes being abandoned on pavements and roads, either because the schemes are badly managed or because “geo-fencing” causes the bikes to stop when they cross an invisible boundary.
