London transport authorities on Tuesday gave Uber two months to continue operating in the city rather than the full five-year license the ride-hailing company had sought.
London is keeping Uber on a tight leash, with shorter-than-usual licenses, as officials review how the company operates following concerns about aggressive corporate tactics and passenger safety.
Transport for London issued the two-month license as the US company's existing 15-month one was set to expire at midnight Wednesday.
TFL first revoked Uber London Ltd.'s license in 2017, but a court later granted the company a 15-month license.
Authorities objected, among other things, to what they said was Uber's failure to report serious criminal offenses and allegations that the company used technology to evade law enforcement officials.
TFL said its approach was producing results and "has led to the app-based firm improving its culture and governance."
