Since January, we&#8217;ve helped fund over 1,100 new e-bike parking bays across London, bringing the total number of bays we&#8217;ve helped create to more than 3,400.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Riders must also submit an end-trip photo, with those parking obstructively receiving warnings, fines, or bans for repeat offences. We also expanded our on-street team earlier this year to remove mis-parked bikes and ease congestion in busy areas.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Voi says it is &#8220;collaborating with boroughs and organisations like London Sight Loss Councils to deliver a service that works for riders and non-riders alike.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Although Voi operates close to 20% of the e-bike fleet permitted by Kensington and Chelsea, fewer than 1% of e-bikes seized in the borough to date are Voi e-bikes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Alex Berwin, head of policy at Forest, says the company takes &#8220;our responsibility to Kensington and Chelsea residents seriously&#8230; and we&#8217;re investing heavily in better parking technology, in-app guidance and rider education to support good behaviour.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;A consistent, pan-London approach would make a huge difference, and we&#8217;re ready to work closely with boroughs and the mayor to help make London the best cycling city in the world.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lime says it is committed to working with RBKC to prevent the need for further enforcement.
