<p>In collaboration with industry the Government will invest £1 billion in charging
infrastructure – making sure that everyone is within 30 miles of a rapid charging
station for electric vehicles. The first £70 million of the Charging Infrastructure
Investment Fund will create 3,000 new rapid chargepoints, more than doubling the number
of rapid chargepoints across the UK by 2024. Highways England has commitment of £15m
to ensure there are chargepoints (rapid where possible) every 20 miles on 95% of the
Strategic Road Network by 2020. We will set out a vision by Spring 2020 for a core
infrastructure network of rapid and high powered chargepoints along England’s strategic
road network.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
