MCDOT Installs Five More EV Charging Stations in County Garages


MCDOT’s Division of Parking Management is installing electric vehicle charging stations in five more County-owned parking garages that should be available the week of October 26. The five locations will each have one station providing service to two parking spaces. Three stations servicing six parking spaces were installed in the Bethesda Capital Crescent Garage (Garage 31) in April of this year.

The new locations are: Woodmont Corner Garage (Garage 11)and Waverly Garage (Garage 47) in Bethesda; the Cameron/Second Street Garage(Garage 7) and Kennett Street Garage (Garage 9) in Silver Spring; and the Amherst Garage (Garage 45) in Wheaton.

All the stations are connected to the nationwide ChargePoint Network of searchable charging stations, are Chargepoint Level 2, and accept payment using a ChargePoint Network card or RFID enabled credit card.

More stations will be installed later this year.
