Manhattan may see more charging stations in the near future for electric vehicles as they become more common. At Monday’s meeting, Riley County’s MPO planning manager told officials to expect some changes in infrastructure to accommodate the gradual rise in EV use. Tremblay said drivers with electric vehicles tend to pass through the Manhattan area and having charging stations can accommodate those visitors. There are currently 12 EV charging stations in Manhattan. Tremblay said possible locations for new charging stations may be on privately owned parking lots such as the Westloop area or the Stratford village. He said people coming into Manhattan for K-State athletic events sometimes ask where to find chargers.
