I wanted to provide you with an update regarding cycle theft, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey. How we are tackling e-bike crime on Queens Park Ward
Over the last few months, we have been speaking with Londoners at our community crime-fighting events to better understand the issues that matter most to you including here in Queens Park Ward.
Across London, and specifically in Queens Park, residents have raised concerns about dangerous riding, anti-social behaviour and theft linked to e-bikes and e-scooters. We have listened, and we are acting.
In the past year, the Metropolitan Police Service has taken more than 2,500 illegal and unsafe e-bikes and e-scooters off London’s streets. Using intelligence-led policing supported by data and technology, officers are targeting locations and behaviours where e-bikes and e-scooters are being used unlawfully or in an anti-social manner.
We are also working closely with partners, including the local authority and transport agencies, to develop evidence-based and targeted interventions that will lead to effective and long-term change.
Acting on the concerns that matter most to residents is at the heart of neighbourhood policing in Queens Park – and we need your input.

• MPS action so far in Queens Park and across London
• In the meantime, we want to update you on what we are already doing to address illegal and anti-social e-bike and e-scooter use: Throughout 2025,
• Riders suspected of being under the influence of alcohol or drugs are being stopped, as intoxicated riding is illegal and dangerous.
• Local neighbourhood officers have carried out regular patrols and targeted enforcement days, focusing on anti-social riding, pavement use, and non-compliant vehicles.
• Queens Park officers have increased high-visibility patrols and used intelligence-led policing to reduce crime, tackle anti-social behaviour, and reassure residents.
• Officers have worked with partner agencies to support rough sleepers, prioritising safeguarding and access to housing and support services.
• Targeted action against burglary has included patrols, crime prevention advice, and follow-up investigations.
• Officers have worked with council and licensing teams to address problem premises and prevent crime and disorder.
• Queens Park officers remain committed to listening to residents and taking robust action to keep the area safe.
Kind regards,
