Lambeth Council have begun installing seven new electrical vehicle charging points (EVCPs) across Myatt’s Fields as part of a programme that will see 116 installed throughout the borough.

The new charging points will come with a dedicated parking space. Five EVCPs were installed in our community last year. This new programme will result in more than 300 EVCPs being operational throughout Lambeth.

Cllr Paul Gadsby and Cllr Annie Gallop, local Myatt’s Fields Councillors, said:

“We are delighted that more EVCPs are being installed in Myatt’s Fields, and more widely in the borough, as there is clearly rising demand for these charging points as more residents switch to electric vehicles. This also forms part of a growing, greener form of transport infrastructure in our area; following our lobbying, increasing numbers of cycle storage units are being installed.

“While these new installations are good news, we will continue to push for even more in the years ahead.”

The new points are being installed at these locations:

Vassall Road, outside number 102

Paulet Road, outside number 210

Akerman Road, outside number 48

Mostyn Road, outside number 7

Upstall Street, outside number 16
