PennDOT Ready to Receive Proposals To Build Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
(Harrisburg, PA) -- PennDOT officials say they're working to plug gaps between electric vehicle charging stations across the state. PA Turnpike CEO Mark Compton says his agency is ready to receive proposals to build about 150 electric vehicle charging stations across the state. PennDOT has identified 27 areas on 15 interstates as well as Route 30 that will need to have the charging stations installed to fulfill state mandates. The department will start accepting applications to build those stations starting Monday. They'll be paid for with nearly 172-million-dollars from the new federal infrastructure program.
