E-bikes
Surrey County Council has launched an e-bike hire scheme in Guildford in partnership with Guildford Borough Council and the University of Surrey. The scheme will provide at least 300 e-bikes across 60 docking stations, making it easier for people to travel around the town without using a car.
The bikes will help connect Guildford town centre with transport hubs, shops, attractions, education sites and leisure facilities, giving residents and visitors another convenient and sustainable way to travel. To find out more or book a bike, visit the Beryl Guildford website.
Electric vehicles and our on-street chargepoint rollout
Since 2019, we have been installing public electric vehicle charge points across Surrey to help more people switch to electric vehicles, especially in areas where homes do not have off-street parking. So far, 43 charging sockets have been installed at 14 locations across the Guildford urban area.
Since March 2023, we have been working closely with Connected Kerb to install thousands of public charge points across the county over the next 5 years, including many more in Guildford. For more information on the on-street electric vehicle charge points rollout please visit the Electric vehicles and our on-street chargepoint rollout webpage.
