General information
EV Council Check provides general information about local council policies and guidance relating to cross-pavement electric vehicle charging solutions.
The information on this website is provided for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute legal, planning, electrical, installation, financial or other professional advice.
Check with your council
Council policies, application procedures, eligibility requirements and installation conditions may change. Different rules may also apply depending on your address, property, pavement, highway, parking arrangement or proposed charging equipment.
Before purchasing equipment, arranging installation or carrying out any work, you should confirm the current requirements directly with your local council and any other relevant authority.
Accuracy and updates
We make reasonable efforts to keep the information accurate and up to date. However, we cannot guarantee that every council record is complete, current or free from errors.
The “Last reviewed” date shows when we last checked a council record. It does not guarantee that the council has not changed its policy since that date. Official council information should always take priority over information displayed on EV Council Check.
No council or government affiliation
EV Council Check is an independent information website. It is not a local council, government department, regulatory body, planning authority, highways authority or installation provider.
The use of a council name does not imply that the council sponsors, approves or endorses this website.
External links
This website contains links to council websites, government websites, application pages and other third-party resources. These links are provided for convenience and to help visitors locate official information.
We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, content, security, privacy practices or subsequent changes. A link does not necessarily mean that EV Council Check endorses the linked website, organisation, product or service.
Installation and safety
EV charging equipment and cross-pavement solutions should be assessed and installed by appropriately qualified professionals where required.
You are responsible for ensuring that any proposed installation complies with applicable council permissions, highway requirements, planning rules, electrical standards, accessibility requirements, product instructions and other relevant laws or regulations.
Advertising and affiliate disclosure
EV Council Check may display third-party advertisements, including advertisements supplied through Google AdSense. Advertisements will be identified as advertising where appropriate.
The appearance of an advertisement does not mean that EV Council Check recommends, verifies or guarantees the advertiser, product or service. Advertisers are responsible for their own claims, products and services.
Limitation of responsibility
You should not rely solely on this website when making a legal, financial, property, installation or purchasing decision. You remain responsible for checking official information and obtaining appropriate professional advice.
Nothing in this Disclaimer excludes or limits any responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law.
