West Sussex County Council is gearing up to install more Electric Vehicle charge points across the county and wants to hear from residents about potential locations.
Part of the wider West Sussex Chargepoint Network, a collaboration with local councils and Connected Kerb.
It’s all part of a vision for a greener, more sustainable future in West Sussex.
Cllr Joy Dennis, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport, said: “We want to lead the way on more sustainable transport options, a key priority in Our Council Plan to help protect the environment.
“We’ve already delivered hundreds of chargepoints and expanding the network is a crucial step in reducing our reliance on fossil fuels and reducing harmful carbon emissions, particularly where residents have limited access to off-road parking.
“Our rollout will give residents and communities the confidence and infrastructure to help them switch to an electric vehicle for a cleaner and greener future for generations to come.
“These proposals are at locations across the county, so I would urge people to take a look at the locations, and let us know their opinions on them via the survey.”
To date, 253 dual-socket electric vehicle chargepoints have been installed on the roadside and in district and borough car parks across West Sussex, with hundreds more planned for the coming years.
