Supercharger - Abingdon, MD - Woodsdale Road

[MG-MD]

So an “Abingdon, MD” entry popped up on Tesla’s Supercharger site, which is strange because the Aberdeen, MD station is 5 minutes up the road (though it’s 150kW)

There are a few location candidates I can think of in this area:
- Royal Farms across the street from the Boulevard at Box Hill shopping center. The shopping center has

Abingdon, MD

Along Primary Interstates: I-95
Along US Numbered Highways (<=5mi): US-40
Along Auxiliary Interstates: None

I-95

From: White Marsh, MD - 11.9 miles
To: Aberdeen, MD - 6.3 miles
Diversion: 2.4 miles
From: Baltimore - Boston Street, MD - 21.6 miles
To: North East, MD - 21.2 miles

A much-needed Supercharger along I-95 to split the gaping chasm of 15.8 miles between White Marsh, MD and Aberdeen, MD.

I kid.

It's pretty amazing how small the gaps along most of I-95 are. And this will be a new v3 Supercharger optimizing more trips.

neat.

Construction has begun on Abingdon and Tesla has filed another permit for Aberdeen. I'll post that one soon.

 

[MG-MD]

Can confirm active construction at this site - concrete is poured, transformers on site. No sign of supercharger stations.

They did a ton of work the in the last week. Stations are all up. Although I’ve seen these take weeks/months to get the power turned on.

I visit this wawa frequently. Will keep you posted. Also know the Maryland wonders group typically does grand opening events for super chargers in MD. Did not see them post a date as of yet.

 

[ItsMYwifesY]

I drove by today and looks like the contractors were running wires from the ground to the charging stations. Still don’t know the estimated time of completion.

There should be a grand opening event from the Maryland owners club

 

[ItsMYwifesY]

fences have been taken down. Not sure if wiring has been completed or eta for grand opening. Looks like they are close to opening. However I believe canton was at this stage and didn’t open for weeks/months.

please look for the transformer and meter

The empty transformer pad is visible in the previous picture.

ok, easily missed, so it will be a bit yet.

I drove by that today. I found out from my neighbor, not yet on Tesla's website. How do you know when it's open? Also, Tesla's site says there's a station coming to Abingdon Target in Q4 2021 and Bel Air Target in Q1 2022, but neither of the locations are where the actual Targets are. Does anybody know why?

Lmao.

The targets are centered in the town name on the map, not where the actual locations are - with rare exception.

The notes on Tesla's map mean that the targeted opening date for the supercharger will be sometime in the listed quarter, not that the supercharger will be located at a Target store (though it's possible that they could be as Tesla has partnered with Target for supercharger hosting in many locations). And the grey pins aren't placed on the map in the actual location where the superchargers will be installed, the pins are just placed over the name of the city where the superchargers will be. So in those specific cases, it just means that Tesla is working towards putting a supercharger somewhere in Abingdon and somewhere in Bel Air.

For Abigdon, you can see exactly where it is, and that it's already under construction, by reading the earlier posts in this very thread. Information on the exact location for the Bel Air supercharger can be found in the appropriate thread: Supercharger - Bel Air North, MD

My wife was there last night around 4 and the Tesla rep was turning on the chargers and said all would be open in 30 minutes. Good luck getting to charge here though because these spots are always block with work trucks and buses.

 

[Thinkje]

Charging here now…

One stall (2A) is not operational.
