I drove through the parking lot today and there were a couple guys working, pumping water out of a hole they had dug alongside one of the pedestals. I asked when the chargers would be turned on and the response I got was, "Who the f*** knows!" In a nutshell: when the pedestals were installed...

You will need to charge in Shreveport. I just drove through the Target parking lot; still no meters. Alternatively, there is a ChargePoint charger at Moffitt Volkswagen in Bossier City. It should be available 24/7. ~60kw, I believe.

Weekly update... I stopped by on my way home from lunch today. It appears all wiring has been run and the site has been cleaned up. Wiring spools, temporary fencing, etc. have all been removed. As of about an hour or so ago, the meters have not been installed.

Workers are back on site today. They are running wires from the transformer to this box:

Drove back through after lunch. Workers are gone. Still no meters.

Transformers are being installed today.

That's some pretty good insight. :) I drove by this site yesterday (from a distance), but didn't see any work activity. As far as I know, still no transformers.

If there are additional stalls being installed, there is no obvious sign of it. I'm not sure what he meant by that. Maybe he has some insight we don't know about? I'll be making a trip to Target this afternoon and will report back if any transformers have shown up.

Any thoughts on the purpose of the smaller pad?

The meter boxes have been there for months. The wiring was just run over the last couple weeks and these two pads were poured either Thursday or Friday of last week. I have an idea for why there are two pads and two meter boxes. Since there are 12 Tesla Superchargers and 2 Level 2 ChargePoint...

Have you tried rebooting the phone and the car?

Current status: Picture #1 - Reference this most recent dig ticket. Points 1 and 2, which previously had conduit sticking out, are now covered - no conduit showing. Picture #2 - Located at point 2.There are no holes in the top, so I'm guessing it's not for the transformer. Perhaps just a...

I'm looking forward to this location. I have family up the road from it and this will keep me from having to drive all the way to Pearl to top off before heading home.

I'm not a CPA and this isn't tax advice - it's just my opinion... The instructions for this form are badly written. I think the census tract / GEOID requirement is for commercial / public charging sites and is an attempt to force the installation of chargers in lower income areas. I don't...

Drove through the parking lot just now; they are actively drilling today. Everyone seemed busy so I didn't bother them with questions. I will check again over the coming days. No transformer on site that I could see.
