Redbridge Council has received government funding to pilot the use of pavement channels for electric vehicle owners who do not have off-street parking.
The channels will allow charging cables to run beneath the pavement, avoiding trip hazards and enabling access to domestic electricity tariffs. The council will cover up to £1,200 of installation costs through the Electric Vehicle Pavement Channel Grant. Additional fees are payable by the applicant, including a £315 application and license fee and a £500 bond.
