Supercharger - Belleville, ON

[EvolutionTeʂla]

Oh, so close. We’re doing our first big Tesla road trip from the GTA to Montreal on Thursday and I was hoping this Supercharger would be ready in time. I guess the odds are against us for this trip so we’ll have to stick with Port Hope and Kingston.

How long you gonna be in Montreal? I’m road tripping up there this weekend, and I’ll be around Montreal all next week. Got my service appoint booked for Tuesday.

Gates are off!

Not sure who took that but the gates are not off. They're still on.

Looks like a ton of cosmetic work still to plus inspection

 

[MarcoRP]

@Avronp nice photos!

Looks as if complete!

 

[EvolutionTeʂla]

Has anyone confirmed if it’s working? We’re about to head back to the GTA from Montreal and it would be great to have a different place to stop.

@Vawlkus Sorry, I just saw your post. I hope you had a good trip.

Still a few weeks way. Tests need to be done plus Ontario Hydro needs to turn on the power, which could be some time.

Looks all ready - all cleaned up and ready for activation

Let’s hope so. I’m driving back to Ottawa on June 6th; would be the perfect place to stop.

I took it easy, and broke it out over two days. I might do a single day on the way back, not sure yet.

looks like they paved that trench they dug.

Tesla doesn't seem to like leaving its cabinets out in the open like that, so perhaps there's still a fence pending. I realise some locations have opened pre-fence. Still that is a high traffic area and I'd be heavily surprised if they left those open like that.

Wow that's an impressive array of chargers.

Passed through there yesterday and the construction fence was still up.

All the work is done, and buttoned up. Not sure they will actually fence in the power equipment because there's very little room around the outside of it to install a wood fence. Could be wrong.

The construction fence was open so I drove in, took a photo and plugged my car in. Locked on, no charge though. Still a bit dirty in there (superchargers are covered in construction dust etc).

Construction fence is down and everything looks done, but still no power today. For a minute, I thought the Tesla logo on the stalls were lit, but sadly it was just sunlight coming through the top.

There are a bazillion sites now in the US with no fencing, and no plans for it.

Is that an official count?

also, maybe you missed this:

A little bird at the Markham II site - mentioned that a fence would be put up to protect the stalls from the traffic entering and exiting the Mall. Will have to see as there is no fence work yet, just poles for signs behind the stalls.

Haha - yes. Elon has influenced my estimations...

I did miss that but wanted to reply to this:

"Tesla doesn't seem to like leaving its cabinets out in the open like that,"

My point is that a fence is no longer a "thing" that holds up activation at many new sites. And, that many I have seen lately, have no fencing whatsoever. (perhaps a few less than a bazillion.... ) Haha!
