The town of Deerfield, MA, installed four fast chargers to serve drivers who need a quick charge and four Level 2 chargers to serve those visiting nearby tourist attractions.
Built with $2.46 million in CFI funding, the project is located near Interstate 91 in Franklin County, Massachusetts, a route that serves drivers in New England from Connecticut up to the Canadian border. The project offers access to multiple modes of transportation, with Franklin Regional Transit Authority (FRTA) Local and Pioneer Valley Transit Authority (PVTA) Regional bus stops nearby and designated bike lanes for safe bicycle access, with secure on-site bike racks.
Site design prioritized pedestrian access upgrades to encourage walkability and connectedness to local attractions.
