Electric Vehicle Charging
We have received a small number of emails, drawing attention to the lack of EV charging points in Whitby, conventional or rapid. Unfortunately, Whitby Town Council neither owns nor operates public car parking in Whitby. The off-street parking in town is operated by Scarborough Borough Council, as the parking authority, and the Park-And-Ride site on the northern edge of town is operated by North Yorkshire County Council as the transport authority.
The prime opportunity to provide recharging facilities is the responsibility of the borough council. You can find more information here: https://www.scarborough.gov.uk/home/parking
Details of the county council's Park-And-Ride provision is here: https://www.northyorks.gov.uk/whitby-park-and-ride
At present, the town council does not own any land where public charging facilities could be located.
