TUCSON – The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) will host a public open house on Oct. 19 in Tucson to share the details of its plan to develop a network of electric vehicle fast charging stations along interstate highways in Arizona using new federal funding through the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Program. The meeting will be the first in a series of public meetings throughout the state to share details of the initial plan implementation and seek public input on which additional highways throughout the state should be added to the ADOT EV network.
The meeting will be held:
- Wednesday, Oct. 19 from 5 – 7 p.m.
- Ramada by Wyndham – Cactus Ballroom, 777 W. Cushing St. in Tucson
The meeting will be in an open house format without a formal presentation; a recorded presentation with study details will be shown throughout the meeting and study team members will be on hand to provide information and answer questions.
The goal of the federal NEVI program is to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles by improving the accessibility, reliability, and equity of clean transportation options.
