This strategy document sets out our current position and strategy on public on-street electric vehicle (EV) charging, recognising that this is a key area of demand and an area where there are likely to be short-term opportunities to deliver improvements. Delivery of on-street EV charging in B&NES is closely aligned with a number of other key policy initiatives being pursued by the Council to tackle the Climate Emergency. In particular, the implementation of low traffic neighbourhoods offer an opportunity for fresh thinking on how road space in residential neighbourhoods is used and is likely to bring new opportunities to deliver on-street EV charging.
