Hyde Park Action Team: The need to regulate pedicabs in central London

  • Tweet
Sunday, 24 April, 2022
  • Local News

We heard from Hyde Park Councillor Heather Acton about residents' concerns over noisy pedicabs and the need for regulation.

This is a pedicab, which is blocking the way, in fact, it's next to bicycle hangars.

And we in Westminster City Council are doing all we can to make pedicabs safer. This is a really difficult problem because they're not licenced and they make a huge amount of noise disturbing residents at night.

So we just recently prosecuted three pedicab drivers who have ignored our warnings and are making a lot of noise late at night, disturbing residents.

We hope that Nickie Aiken's Pedicabs (London) Bill will go through to help residents get a good night's sleep and to help visitors use pedicabs safely.

You can find out more about the Hyde Park Action Team online here and Nickie Aiken MP's Pedicabs Campaign via her website.
