What about those striped motorcycle parking spots?;)
They're for people who can't park :p

Southbound at Pheasants Nest is now open.
I tried to use this today to take a coffee break while driving from Canberra to Sydney. We took the northbound exit at Phesants Nest, then the sneaky underpass to the southbound side. Then we were stuck. The chargers were to our left (north) and all roads and lanes were one way to our right (southbound). Not sure if this will change once construction is finished, but if anyone else tries this trick, you’ve got to drive 7km north to the next exit, then turn back to the southbound lanes. It’s not worth the drive, so just find somewhere else. Hopefully, this will improve once the northbound side is finished and will hopefully have chargers.

(As an aside, we made the trip in a fully laden MYP from the Majura Park Supercharger to Sydney north shore in a single charge, starting at 84% SOC & finishing at 19%, averaging 170Wh/km. We ended up not stopping to charge or for a coffee.)

There will be a duplicate set of 6 spaces for charging when the northbound station is finished upgrading. Presumably in the same charger config.
 
A few photos added to Plugshare - canopies with solar panels and a wooden looking structure.
Only thing it's missing now for the govt funding is contactless payments, right?

It's just a petrol station. Just wait til there's no other traffic around. It's only a hundred metres from the sneaky underpass to where you can cross into the new car park.

Down at Marulan it's the same thing. Do you really believe people who live locally and work at the northbound service centre don't ignore the no entry sign after making sure there's zero other traffic around? Would they really take the highway to Marulan South Road and back again?

Where the cars come out from the petrol station directly opposite the underpass is not marked “No Entry”. I would simply wait until there are no cars coming out, then drive in and turn right to drive around the back of the petrol station to the location to where the chargers are.

I’m pretty sure that this is what it will end up being, but that isn’t what it is now. That is the point of what I was writing above. Right now, it’s a construction site and it is very difficult to move around because of the narrow lanes, impeded by barriers and parking in odd spots. if it were just a petrol station, I would be happy to ignore the one-way signs. However, I don’t think that’s a safe thing to do right now when it is only a single lane going in one direction.
 
In an ideal world I personally would never leave home without both ski gear and a cello in my car - equipment for all occasions. Nearest I have managed on a few occasions is surfboards and skis in my car at the same time and using both on the same day.

Apres-ski cello is I think under-appreciated.

Photo on FB by AttCall Civil showing the changes at Ampol Pheasants Nest Southbound.
(The old station is centred on the top pic, and too the right on the bottom)

The FB post says Northbound should open in August, and that demolition is now commencing on the old Southbound (which should hopefully add more parking - as can be seen from the pic it's limited at the moment which might lead to ICEing despite the great job Ampol has done with the EV stations)
