Rutland County Council has secured over £100,000 to fund a pilot project that will see a minimum of 23 charge points installed across the county.

This work is being carried out as part of a national Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (LEVI) project, funded by the Government’s Office for Zero Emissions Vehicles (OZEV).

Cllr Christine Wise, Portfolio Holder for Highways, Transport, and the Environment, commented: ‘We understand that an increase in transportation options for residents is essential as our county grows and adapts.

‘We are already looking to overhaul our entire bus network, but we are also very aware of the ever-growing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs).

‘As a rural area we want residents to have a wide range of travel options to choose from and increasing the number of electric charge points is an important step to keep up with the demand from EVs.’
