Lyric Square 'Eco Fair' Postponed till Later in Summer


But year's free membership of electric car club Bluecity still on offer to residents

An 'eco fair' which was set to take place in Hammersmith's Lyric Square this Wednesday, 26 April has been postponed and will now take place later in the summer, following the General Election on 8 June.

The event was intended to introduce residents of Hammersmith and Fulham to the borough's new electric car club, Bluecity.

Residents are being offered a year's free membership of Bluecity's scheme, which works rather like Santander cycles, where you can pick up a car from any local charging point.

H&F already has a network of 85 on-street electric vehicle charging points, including in residential streets, which is expected to grow to 150 by this summer, from charging points provider Source London.

Across London meanwhile there already over 850.

You can see a map of points in the borough which are already operational and those coming soon on Source London's website.

Car club members can use any of these charging points.

Bluecity cars create no exhaust emissions, so you can drive around safe in the knowledge you’re not
contributing to local air pollution levels as well as helping to combat climate change.

Club members will be able to reserve a vehicle 30 minutes in advance and can leave it in one of the many compatible charging bays across London, which can be found via the app.

If you live and work in H&F, you can register online to access the free membership deal, using the code EARLYBIRD.

The deal entitles drivers to a year’s free membership (usually £5 per month) and 20 hours of driving (usually 17p per minute, with a minimum charge of £3.40).

Users will be able to reserve a vehicle 30 minutes in advance and can leave it in any charging bay in any of the 16 London boroughs which are signed up to Source London.
