TfL to issue ban on e-bikes after concerns over igniting batteries

Only folding models will be permitted on London Underground, Overground, Elizabeth Line and DLR trains from 31 March

Most e-bikes will be banned across the London Underground and other Transport for London services, after growing safety concerns over igniting batteries.

Only folding e-bikes, which are less likely to have been modified and are deemed less of a safety risk, will be permitted on the London Underground, Overground, Elizabeth Line and DLR trains from 31 March.
