@DiscoSteve Despite what you say, as I keep saying, terraced houses do not allow you the luxury of parking outside your own home.Like most things in life, your ability to take advantage of them is often linked to your ability to pay - sorry its the way of the (western) world. EV's do attract a premium price wise at the moment, which will eventually even out and become less of an issue in the 2nd Hand Market. But having the ability to home charge an EV is directly linked to your ability to own a property with off-road parking. But having the ability to own any car is linked to the capability to park outside your own property - unless you're a twat and don't care and dump it outside someone elses property. Plenty in houses round me fall into the twat category. And for the record, I am an EV owner (not a twat... much...), I do have a charger on the front of my house within reach of the spot I park in
I've mentioned Gorse Hill where I know from experience you had to accept that it was first come first served but there are a huge number of terraced houses throughout Manchester.
All around Maine Road, (Horton Rd/Thornton Road) Sale,
Ashton on Mersey.
Both labour and tory state 2035 as the end to petrol but neither of them have addressed the issues that will be faced. There are no plans in place to use public funds and the technology is not available.
The reason the council in the OP won't give permission is, they say, they are waiting for government guidance/rules.
Allowing an individual to own an EV is one thing, forcing a nation to do it is entirely different.
