New electric car charging stations could soon be coming to a McDonald’s in Banbury.

A planning application has been submitted by the company Instavolt to Cherwell District Council to install two rapid electric vehicle charging stations in a McDonald’s car park.

The McDonald's is located on Beaumont Road in Banbury and Instavolt, which is responsible for operating a rapid charging network across the UK, intends to turn three existing parking spaces into EV charging bays.

A new fleet of 14 electric cars will soon be available to hire on a daily or hourly basis from 14 locations in Oxfordshire.
