Wandsworth Council will bring the ban into force once it has finished installing 111 parking bays for e-bikes across the borough, including Clapham Junction, Tooting Broadway, Tooting Bec, Wandsworth Town, Balham and Putney town centres.
The scheme aims to deal with issues created from when rental e-bikes are left parked on pavements, blocking routes for pedestrians.
E-bike parking will be banned on pavements in busy town centre locations once all the bays have been installed. 'free-floating' parking will still be allowed away from these hotspots and in quieter parts of the borough.
David Tidley, head of transport strategy at the council, said the borough supports the use of e-bikes as a 'convenient travel option' but they cause issues when parked inconsiderately.
