<p>The Government has had a number of discussions with companies running petrol service
stations about the provision of electric vehicle charge points.</p><p> </p><p>The
Automated and Electric Vehicles Act gives the Government new powers to improve the
provision of electric vehicle infrastructure. These proposals include powers to require
provision at large fuel retailers. We have said we will monitor the market and only
use these powers if the market fails to deliver the infrastructure required. The Traffic
Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016 do not prescribe signs for petrol filling
stations. An electric vehicle charging point symbol is available for use on traffic
signs indicating service areas.</p>
