Home charging
Wires across the pavement
You should not trail electrical wires across the pavement to charge vehicles on the road as this could be dangerous, cause an accident and you could be liable.
If you cannot charge your vehicle at home, whether you park on a driveway or if you park on the road, you must charge your vehicle at the place you're travelling to or stop off mid journey.
You can find more information about electric vehicle charging at home on the TFGM website.
We're investigating options for electric vehicle charging for locations where off-street parking is not available. However, we cannot install on-street residential chargers or allow residents to install them on street. If you would like to tell us about your interest in on-street residential chargers and help us plan for the future, email transportation@stockport.gov.uk.
