'With us being a visitor destination, as we move towards electric will we see a drop in visitors if they can’t charge their cars?”
Fears a lack of public electric vehicle chargers could deter visitors to Blackpool as more people move over to the new technology have been dismissed by council chiefs.
But Alan Cavill, director of communications and regeneration, said most visitors came from a catchment area which means they can make the round trip to Blackpool on a single charge. He said: “People tend to charge their vehicles at home and most have a range of 250 miles. Mr Cavill added: “It’s for the private sector as we do not want to carry the risk. I think in the future electric cars will have a longer range and there will be chargers at motorway service stations which can charge very quickly, down to minutes.”
A bid for capital funding is due to be submitted by the end of November, with £1.7m pre-allocated and which is expected to leverage in additional private sector investment.
