In today’s fast-paced world, the shift toward electric vehicles (EVs) represents a monumental change in how we think about transportation and sustainability. As more drivers make the transition to electric vehicles, the need for convenient, reliable, and fast charging solutions has never been greater. Keeping this momentum in mind, we are thrilled to unveil our new EV charging site at Junction 24 Bridgwater, designed to meet the needs of EV users while promoting eco-friendly travel.
Location and Power
Conveniently located near the M5, our latest EV charging site features 10x ultra-rapid charging points, each capable of delivering up to 200kW of power. This means that EV drivers can enjoy significant charging speeds, allowing them to get back on the road in no time. Whether you’re on a long-distance journey or just need a quick top-up while you run errands, our ultra-rapid charging points are engineered to offer maximum efficiency and convenience.
Accessibility for Everyone
At our Junction 24 charging site, we are committed to inclusivity and accessibility. Our accessible bays are designed to accommodate all users. With ample space and easy access to charging stations, we strive to ensure that every EV driver can feel comfortable and supported while using our facilities. Each charging unit encompasses a 32-inch touchscreen along with easy payment options. It’s crucial that our charging infrastructure caters to all members of the community, and we’ve taken thoughtful steps to ensure that our site embodies this principle by following guidance from the PAS 1899:2022 guidance as well as learnings from our ChargeSafe accreditation, working in partnership with our partners at Formula Space to ensure our on-site branding meets our minimum standards.
On-site Canteen
To make your stop even more enjoyable, Junction 24 has an onsite canteen that operates seven days a week. Here, you can indulge in a variety of locally sourced, homemade food options, ensuring that your meal is not only delicious but also sustainably sourced. Whether you’re craving a hearty buffet or a quick snack while your vehicle charges, The Canteen has something for everyone.
Safety First
Safety was a vital consideration for us when designing our site, and we have taken numerous steps to ensure that our charging site offers a secure environment for all customers. Our site is located in a well-lit area with clear wayfinding signage to guide drivers efficiently to the charging bays. It is also within close proximity to The Canteen for increased reassurance.
Supporting Sustainable Travel
By opening our new EV charging site at Junction 24, we are taking significant strides towards supporting sustainable travel. As we all become increasingly aware of the impact of transportation on our environment, providing convenient and efficient charging options for electric vehicles is a vital part of the solution. Our mission is to encourage more drivers to make the switch to electric, thereby reducing carbon emissions and contributing to a cleaner, greener planet.
