More Voi and Lime eBike hazards

Greenford Road, Monday 13 July 2026

Greenford Road, Monday 13 July 2026

The usual undocked eBike chaos and hazard for passersby on the path by the bike lane. Also note the floating bus stop on one side. Are you actually trying to kill people? Ealing Council please ban these undocked bikes.

“Voi” eBike pavement hazard

Before

After
So, the eBike that's been lying on the pavement like that for at least three days in quite a hazardous way for certain people... I took it upon myself to move it aside today. Photos before and after. (Ed.)

Tuesday's ebikes



Now imagine you are visually impaired or even just make a misstep, perhaps in the dark. “Be a good citizen and lift them up and move them”? Have you ever tried to lift one of those things? They’re very heavy. And dirty, of course, as you can imagine in this foul weather of late. (Ed.)

Happy New eBikes (?)

Greenford Road near Sudbury Hill, Saturday 10 January 2026

These "Voi" brand eBikes are blocking the pavement beside the busy A-road.

The Voi (on this occasion) eBikes are also partially obstructing the service road.

Ealing Council please take note.

Crowded eBikes blocking footpath - Greenford Road

Greenford Road 12 December 2025

This crowd of "Voi" and "OnLime + Uber" ebikes completely blocked the footway for pedestrians today, forcing them into a bike lane. A bike lane! They are dumped near an official parking place for them but there are too many to fit in that space.

Viewed from the other side

Update: It's no better today.

Voi eBikes dumped on the ground at Sudbury Hill

"Welcome to Harrow" sign behind dumped Voi and OnLime + Uber ebikes, border with Ealing, 15-6-25
Is this just something we have to put up with now, ebikes dumped here, there and everywhere? Blocking paths, sometimes forcing people with prams and children to step into the road to get past. In what sort of world is this acceptable? But nobody's doing anything about it. And in case you think those bikes could just be picked up by someone instead of photographing them, you probably have never tried to lift one - they are very heavy. Another problem with these ebikes, is that they are so heavy that hospitals A&E departments are seeing many broken legs as a result of riders having accidents where the bike falls over on them. And as for speeding electric scooters, what's wrong with walking? Just walk you lazy so-and-sos. [Ed.]

eBikes for Christmas

Lime-E eBikes outside Sudbury Hill tube station, Christmas Eve

It says "£1 to start" on them. There's an app.

Beside a pelican crossing (Greenford Road). Safety from children's viewpoint?

One e-thing leads to another

Following on from the appearance of electric bikes (ebikes, Lime-E brand) outside the two Sudbury Hill stations earlier this week, sure enough on a walk around the area today, two paths are partially blocked for those carrying large shopping bags and or pushing prams or in wheelchairs.
