Merseyrail Fail: bin the blanket e-bike ban

If Merseyrail get their way, nobody will be able to park a non-folding e-bike at any Merseyrail station or take it on their trains.

Their Passenger Charter includes a ‘promise to listen’, but they’ve admitted they didn’t consult anyone before making this decision – not the public, cycling groups, or any user groups.

Despite Cycling UK requesting one, we’ve been unable to secure a meeting with them to discuss this.  But we’re not giving up, and we need to show them how this decision will affect people, and how much it matters to us.

If you agree with us that Merseyrail's blanket e-bike ban is wrong, take a few minutes  to let them know below using our simple action.

For more than 140 years, Cycling UK has been inspiring people to ride. With your help, together we’re bringing about a real change. We’d like to keep in touch about the difference you’re making, our campaigning, cycling projects and volunteering opportunities, as well as events, marketing, and fundraising work. If you’re happy to hear from us please opt in.
