Charleston has always been a city that blends tradition with innovation. Now, we have the opportunity to take a bold, thoughtful step forward by supporting the adoption of electric carriages.
Electric carriages offer a clean, modern, and memorable way to experience our historic city. With zero emissions and whisper-quiet motors, these vehicles reduce noise and air pollution—helping preserve the charm of Charleston's streets while protecting the health of residents, visitors, and our environment. Philadelphia has already had great success with their adoption of electric carriages!
This isn't just about transportation—it's about strengthening our community and local economy. Electric carriage operations can create new jobs in tech and vehicle maintenance, while giving Charleston's tourism industry an edge with sustainable travel experiences that today's visitors actively seek out.
By embracing electric carriages, we can:
Support eco-friendly innovation in the tourism sector
Boost Charleston's reputation as a forward-thinking, sustainable destination
Enhance the visitor experience with a smooth, clean, and quiet ride
Encourage local investment and job creation in a growing green economy
Let's move Charleston forward while honoring everything that makes it special. Sign this petition to support the transition to electric carriages—because progress and preservation can go hand in hand.
