Representation Summary:

Policy TRAN8 – Planning for Low Emission Vehicles
This policy requires that new developments should include adequate provision for charging infrastructure but there are no specific requirements noted. However, the Viability and Delivery Study (May 2021) has assumed £800 per dwelling for electric vehicle charging points therefore clarity is sought on whether a specific requirement is being sought. The policy should include reference to ‘where possible’ given there may be viability or practicality constraints.
