We’re planning to accelerate and support the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) in Bayside with more public EV charging stations, delivered in partnership with JOLT, an electric vehicle charging network company.
Nine public EV charging stations are proposed for some of Bayside’s highly visited shopping precincts, encouraging EV drivers to shop and dine locally while they charge up.
These fast 50kw EV chargers will be installed at no cost to Council and provide free 7kWh of charging to each customer every 24 hours, equal to 45-50 km of driving range.
EV charging stations with digital advertising screens are proposed for the following locations:
Site Name | Address | Suburb |
Black Street carpark | 38 Carpenter Street | Brighton |
Sandringham Library | Chalmers Avenue – off street car park | Sandringham |
Seaview Shops | 351 Balcombe Road | Beaumaris |
Beaumaris Concourse | Opposite 2 South Concourse | Beaumaris |
Bluff Road activity centre | 320 Bluff Road | Sandringham |
Hampton activity centre | Mills Street, adjacent to 486 Hampton Street | Hampton |
Church Street activity centre | 4 Church Street, adjacent to ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Pharmacies | Brighton |
Highett Station | 493 Highett Road | Highett |
Black Rock Council carpark | 588 Balcombe Road | Black Rock |
At each location, one to two public car parking bays will be converted to EV charging parking only.
