TRAVELODGE has submitted plans for four electric car charging ports at its Melksham hotel.
It is said that each of the four charging ports can charge two cars simultaneously – resulting in eight charging bays total.
The plans, if successful, would result in the construction of a new electricity substation and switchboard at the site.
