Plans have been agreed to upgrade Brighton and Hove’s electric vehicle charging facilities located around the city.
Environment, transport and sustainability committee members voted in favour of new rapid units being installed and existing slow units being upgraded to fast ones.
The first rapid unit will be installed at Withdean Stadium as part of a £2.4 million government-funded scheme that will see up to 40 rapid chargers installed across the Southeast of England.
Rapid charging points can provide an 80% charge to compatible EVs in under 30 minutes.
