Broughty Ferry Electric Vehicle Rechargng Leads the Way

Electic vehicle charging hub in Queen Street Car Park, Broughty Ferry
At the Broughty Ferry Community Council meeting on Tuesday 6 December, the members received a presentation from Gary McRae from the Dundee City Council's City Development. He and a colleague came to consult our Community Councillors about their proposals for the Electric Vehicle Charging Hub at Queen Street car park.

The proposed new layout is pictured in the top left and bottom images. These proposals are described in more detail in a previous blog posting.

What Gary was able to reveal is how Dundee and Broughty Ferry are in the forefront of encouraging and facilitating switching to electric vehicles.

For example, the current rapid e-car charger in the Queen Street Car Park, pictured top right, is the most frequently used in Scotland. Hopefully the switch to low emission vehicles will help improve air quality in the City in general and Broughty Ferry.
