Uber London licence removed
Uber has been stripped of its London operating licence by the regulator in a major blow to the ride-hailing app.
The firm’s permit has not been renewed after “several breaches that placed passengers and their safety at risk” were identified, Transport for London said.
The firm is almost certain to appeal the decision during which time it will be able to continue to operate.
A TfL statement said: “Despite addressing some of these issues, TfL does not have confidence that similar issues will not reoccur in the future, which has led it to conclude that the company is not fit and proper at this time.”
