When Indianapolis’s electric car sharing program Blue Indy pulled the plug in 2019, 89 charging stations were left across the City. The results of an assessment to reuse that infrastructure is now public.
The City also conducted its own study. Policy Advisor McKenzie Higgins says the aim is now to build a better transportation network.
“Much of the reuse is going to be around multimodal solutions, either moving folks away from cars to to electric vehicle use,” Higgins said.
Those reuse strategies are in line with the City’s sustainability plan called Thrive Indy.
Reverting back to traditional parking spaces was the least popular option for people who responded to the public survey.
