(Ambridge, PA) Ambridge has become the first city in the county to install their own electric vehicle charging stations. Borough officials authorized the purchase of electric vehicle chargers earlier this year. 2 are for the public’s vehicles and 2 are for police vehicles. The chargers are located in front of the borough building  and were placed there earlier this month, according to a spokesperson. The first charging station overall in the county was built approximately two years ago in the Beaver County Courthouse parking garage. That charging station is operated by the county and is free for the public.
