Requested Tue 09 April 2024
Responded Mon 15 April 2024

With the push from the UK Government towards electric vehicles, in both public and private sector, I would like to know what percentage of Local Authorities have an Electric Vehicle Transition Strategy in place and how they manage their fleet of vehicles.

1. Do you have an Electric Vehicle transition strategy in place?

2. How many vehicles (pool cars, taxis, buses, trucks, and so on) do you have in your fleet and what percentage is electric/hybrid?

3. How many garages do you operate for the maintenance of your fleet, including taxi compliance and MOTs. Does this cover both diesel fuelled, pure electric, and hybrid vehicles?

4. Can I please have the contact details (email and phone number) for your Fleet Manager?

Response

1. No, fleet electrification is part of our climate change strategy.

2. 5x electric vans, 2x electric cars, out of a fleet of 40x vehicles in total.

3. Zero
