We want to hear from you!
Following the launch of the Six Streets mobility hub (a sustainable transport trial) in March 2024, we would like to hear from you to find out what you think.
We would like to hear your feedback and learn more about your interactions with the hub or about any potential challenges or issues. This feedback will help us to understand your community’s transport needs and inform any future schemes elsewhere in Derby.
The mobility hub provides better transport choices for residents by providing the community with access to electric vehicle (EV) charging and a Car Club.
Results from the Local Electric Vehicle Infrastructure consultation earlier this year about EV use in Derby showed that 73.9% of respondents were considering buying an electric car in the next three years. However, only 68.2% of these residents had access to a driveway or private off-street parking. Our aim was to create positive changes and improvements by providing options to be able to improve sustainable transport and encourage more low-carbon journeys for residents without off-street parking.
EV charging points were installed on Wheeldon Avenue and Statham Street to support residents to make the switch to an electric vehicle.The two charge points on White Street and Statham Street have been used over 300 times and we are seeing this increase steadily month on month.
The Car Club gives residents the opportunity to rent an electric vehicle from key locations on a short-term basis.Between March and July 2024 a total of 13,965 electric vehicle miles have been travelled in the Six Streets all electric Car Club vehicles. This is equivalent to3,685 tones of CO2 which would have been emitted if the trips had been made using a petrol car and the same as 6,304 roundtrip flights to Munich.
How is the trial funded?
The trial is funded by the Department for Transport’s (DfT) Transforming Cities Fund. In 2020, Nottingham City and Derby City Councils successfully secured £161 million to invest in local transport infrastructure to improve sustainable transport, support growth, and encourage more low-carbon journeys.
Why Six Streets?
Six Streets has high-density personal vehicle ownership and relatively high demand for electric vehicles. A mobility hub had the potential to bring significant benefits to the area.
How long is the pilot?
The scheme will be piloted for two years, with regular monitoring and evaluation undertaken throughout this period. These findings will be reported back to the Department for Transport to help them with implementation of similar schemes elsewhere in the UK.
Who operates the charge points?
The new chargers are operated by BP Pulse. More information about public charging prices can be found on the BP Pulse website.
Who did you consult with prior to the launch?
In June 2022, we held a roadshow event to promote the pilot of a Mobility Hub in the Six Streets area. We received some great feedback from members of the community which helped us to develop the pilot scheme.
For more information, or if you require a copy of the survey in another format such as hard copy, email traffic.management@derby.gov.uk or write to: Future Transport Zone, Traffic Management & Road Safety, Derby City Council, Council House, Corporation Street, Derby, DE1 2FS.
