Had a little time to stop by on my way through SP and saw a contractor working. Sorry not the best photo.

Looks like some activity today. Not sure if it's prep for the Supercharger transformer but one can hope.

Yep! It's working and shows up on my phone but not on car nav yet.

Just stopped by the location for some propane and tried to charge. Nothing. However when I asked the cashier/attendant about when the chargers might be turned on he seemed surprised said that they should already be on. I told him they weren't on and he said he would check with his manager...

One more photo of an empty parking lot... No joy, yet.

Fence down but no power yet.

Two Mid-American utility trucks on site today as well as what looked like a large generator(I think). Maybe as a backup for the gas station and store during the connection process? Either way it's still progress.

Work continues! One of the concrete pads appears to have been poured, maybe for the transformer.

Woo Hoo! Construction has begun! Crew working on a Sunday. Trenching done and looks like most materials are there on site. Exciting to see!

Here are some pictures of the proposed location. Fortunately the area is separate from most of the normal traffic pattern of the parking lot. The parking lot at this Hyvee is on the small side and usually busy. There are two Charge Point chargers in the main lot area but only one of the four...
