Brentwood Borough Council is bringing pay-as-you-go cars to Brentwood with national car share scheme, Co Wheels, offering residents and businesses peace of mind, convenience, and accessibility of three on-street cars that are available to book online or via the Co Wheels app within 15 minutes of making a journey.
The pay-as-you-go vehicles include an electric vehicle at the Town Hall, which is available to hire from this week.
Environment, Enforcement and Housing Committee chair, Cllr Maria Pearson, said, “These eco-friendly cars offer a flexible way to travel around Brentwood and it is very cost-effective with hourly rates starting from £5.50.
“This is part of Brentwood Borough Council’s green initiative to encourage a clean, safe and environmentally friendly place to live, work and visit. I am very excited about the launch of this scheme.”
