bp pulse Bootham Row Car Park

These EV charging bays were located inside a small public car park in the city centre. It seems that the area was previously entirely hatched off and it makes the markings depicting each bay quite difficult to distinguish. There were four charging bays in total and one machine between two bays. The bays were standard size bays meaning there was very little space around or in between the bays. I would not personally be able to use these bays because I require the space to get my wheelchair out on one side of the car and this would be impossible with cars parked next to me. With cars parked next to each other, it also would make it almost impossible to get a wheelchair between two cars to reach the charging machine. The machine itself has been laid out in a way that makes it very difficult to use from a wheelchair. The machine has been placed on a square, concrete base which is higher than the floor. This means that I would be unable to get close enough to the machine in my wheelchair to reach the connectors or the interaction point at the top of the machine.
