WSCC Proposed Locations for more Electric Vehicle Chargepoints.

Important Announcement from West Sussex County Council

Southwater Parish Council is pleased to share a significant update on behalf of West Sussex County Council (WSCC) regarding the installation of new public electric vehicle (EV) chargepoints in our county.

WSCC, in collaboration with all seven district and borough councils and infrastructure specialist Connected Kerb, is planning an extensive rollout of thousands of chargepoints over the next decade at zero cost to the councils. This aims to enhance on-street charging accessibility and promote sustainable transportation throughout West Sussex.

Over 170 chargepoints have already been installed, and 250 more are in progress. Locations were determined based on resident requests and Connected Kerb's site selection tool.

We invite you to provide feedback on the proposed locations for the second phase. Visit www.connectedkerb.com/westsussexresidents to review the site details and share your comments by August 7, 2023.

To express your thoughts or seek clarification, visit: https://yourvoice.westsussex.gov.uk/ev-chargepoints. We value your opinions!

Based on feedback, WSCC plans to install six chargepoints at each location in the future, reserving two parking bays exclusively for EVs. The remaining four bays will be available to all residents.

Cllr Joy Dennis, WSCC Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport, encourages your participation in shaping the future of EV infrastructure in West Sussex!

Chris Pateman-Jones, CEO of Connected Kerb, is excited about the West Sussex Chargepoint Network, which aims to prepare us for a full transition to electric vehicles by 2030.

Together, we can build a greener West Sussex!
