CTDOT surveys drivers about the future of EV chargers in Conn. [Video]

The survey precedes future projects that will expand the network of electric vehicles in Connecticut.

It’s a part of the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Program, which was passed by congress in 2021 as part of a bipartisan infrastructure bill. NEVI provides states like Connecticut with funding to award grants to private, public and nonprofit entities to build, own, maintain and operate fast electric vehicle charges along highways, according to the CTDOT website. 

The program will provide the state with $52 million over five years to expand its network of EV chargers. 

The survey currently being conducted by the Connecticut Department of Transportation will help them decide how to move forward with those projects.
