How we are tackling e-bike crime in Perivale

Over the last few months, we have been talking to Londoners at our community crime fighting events, to better understand exactly what issues you care about most, including here in Perivale. 

Across London, including in Perivale, we heard of widespread concerns about dangerous riding, anti-social behaviour and thefts linked to e-bikes and e-scooters.  

So, we are stepping up our action. 

In the past year, we have taken over 2,500 illegal and unsafe e-bikes and e-vehicles off London’s streets. Through precision-led policing driven by intelligence, data and technology, we are seizing thousands of dangerous rides where they’re being used unlawfully or anti-socially.  

We are working with partners to develop evidence-based, targeted interventions and operations that will lead to effective, long-term change. 

Acting on concerns that matter most to Londoners is at the heart of our community crime-fighting – and so we need your input.

We would appreciate hearing from you to help us better understand both the concerns and benefits of e-bikes and e-scooters use in your area. This will help us understand what you would like us to prioritise and give us insight to take to partners and drive action.
