A seasonal ban on e-bikes and e-scooters on TTC vehicles and property took effect Sunday morning.
“Lithium-ion batteries pose a greater risk in fluctuating temperatures seen during colder months, resulting in a higher likelihood of short circuits and fires,” the transit agency said on its website. “Paired with the increased risk for fire damage and spread in underground tunnels, the ban was determined to be the safest option for customers and employees.”
