Cyclists working for Deliveroo in the centre of Leeds have been told to slow down, after complaints about their speed.

The company has issued notices to its riders based in the city asking them to be more careful in pedestrianised areas. There’s been a huge increase in the number of delivery riders operating in the city centre since the end of the pandemic.
