Supercharger - Austin, TX - S Lamar Blvd

[Guacahummus]

A construction permit has been issued for this location. Work on the Webberville Rd location started a day or two after the construction permit was issued so work might start soon on this location.

Looks like it will be 12 stalls right underneath the Lakehill Plaza sign right across the ATM

Just been told this site is under construction

There is a lot of site work going on between the Straight Music and the ATM machine in front of Target. I didn't have a chance to look in detail.

Looks like this thread is more appropriate - Supercharger - Austin, TX - S Lamar Blvd

 

[brkaus]

Yup. In the area today and lots of folks working on the site.

This could also refer to the one that is in Oak Hill.

 

[Twiglett]

the original placement looks very like the South Lamar location or at least caddy cornered from it.
Either way - pretty sure this thread refers to an existing thread.
Its difficult to tell though - who knows that might put one on the other side exactly where the marker was

 

[mbdionio]

they are working on it even on a Saturday.

 

[chepster]

They were working on it yesterday, Sunday, as well. It's already trenched.

The Electrical Permit has been marked as 'Final' on this location. It says it passed electrical inspection yesterday. The building permit is still open. Think this one is close.

Process Description	Status	Start Date	Scheduled End Date	End Date	# of Attempts

Tesla truck? If so, they may be there commissioning the site (assuming there is a Tesla car there too to test). Otherwise, could be electrician there for a final inspection.

Lovin the Austin-area V3 SC buildout. Remember when all we had was the Linc, and half the stalls wouldn't go above ~20kw?

I've been there twice, but never again. Not designed well, and difficult to get in and out. Plus crowded and split charging

Honestly RR and this place couldn't come soon enough.

The coordinates in supercharge.info are offset a little. The correct coordinates are 30.233293, -97.793053, right by the the mall sign and across the ATM.

I stopped by this evening and this one is open!

Oh yay great progress, in near-record time. The city of Austin seems to see the value in the Supercharger network. I hope this spreads to a few other places.

I was just down in Corpus Christi over Christmas, and its a bit barren there. The Three Rivers charger had a short line when we went through (both directions).

 

[mbdionio]

hopefully the turnaround time for the other SCs under construction will be like this

Corpus needs a SC. I cant understand why Austin has a 8 and Corpus Zero
