Uber Technologies Inc. has been granted a two-month license to operate in London as the ride-hailing app makes stuttering progress in winning over the city’s regulator.
Transport for London had previously declined to grant Uber a private-hire license, but said in a statement on Tuesday that the company had improved its culture and governance. Uber can apply for a new license before November and could potentially be granted a longer permit.
