Ban fossil fuel powered mopeds and scooters in London due to pollution and noise

Petition Details

Having lived all over London the rise of delivery services has increased noise 24/7 where it's significantly effected my wellbeing from noise and pollution. Currently my new neighbours use 6 mopeds as couriers. Revving at all hours and alarm sounds e.g https://youtu.be/xRz39QtuT9U?t=73.
