Electric Lime bikes have become a nuisance along a stretch of road near Chiswick Bridge, where rival councils have licensed different operators. Residents are frustrated by the accumulation of bikes, which are often left scattered and in disarray.
Editor’s Note: This situation highlights the challenges of managing shared mobility services in urban areas. As different councils license competing operators, it raises questions about regulation, public space usage, and the overall effectiveness of e-bike programs.
