The progress towards development of an electric vehicle charging network along the Highway 16 corridor will make for a presentation from Prince Rupert Mayor Lee Brain at this evenings City Council session.
With some of the early report work now complete, the various Regional Districts of the North, including North Coast Regional District are looking to move the project forward, with a timeline for charging stations to be in place or at least in development by 2020.
As we noted in February, North Coast Regional District received an update for the program, with Directors hearing a presentation on the findings of the Highway 16/97 Electric Vehicle Network Study.
The Mayor has been an early advocated for the program across the Highway 16 corridor.
Some of the notes for tonight's presentation can be found below:
