Background

Council at its meeting on 26 June 2023, resolved to adopt the Electrification of Transport in the City Strategy and Action Plan. The strategy outlines key actions to support this transition, including, advocacy, and actions within the City’s control.

Action 20 of the Strategy outlines that the City will work with private sector providers to trial paid on-street electric vehicle charging in residential areas with constrained private charging opportunities. This should be cost neutral to the City and avoid negative impacts on the public domain and residential amenity.

In collaboration with Ausgrid and EVX who are the charging point operator, the City is proposing to install dedicated on-street parking for charging of electric vehicle using Ausgrid infrastructure.
