Harrow Council is addressing delays in electric vehicle charging infrastructure delivery, identified in the Culture, Environment and Economy Directorate's risk register for the first quarter of 2026-27.

Harrow Council is currently addressing significant delays in delivering electric vehicle charging points, which were highlighted in the Culture, Environment and Economy Directorate's risk register for the first quarter of 2026-27. These delays stem from procurement challenges, specifically a legal challenge from an unsuccessful company, preventing the delivery of rapid EV charging points. The issue was presented to the Governance, Audit, Risk Management and Standards Committee in July 2026.

The risk register, which details identified risks for the directorate, noted that these procurement issues are impacting Harrow Council's targets for EV charging infrastructure. Cathy Knubley, Strategic Director of Culture, Environment and Economy, reported on the failure to deliver these points in July 2026.
