Still no permit in Denton, so it doesn't seem like the crews are heading there from Ardmore and Weatherford -- Unless they've somehow gotten their permit out of the system.

I'd love for that to happen!
Since sites are out for bid months in advance, crews may make scattered leaps, geographically speaking. I think that happens more often than a nice orderly progression of "Good job guys, now - onward to build the next nearby SC site..." (Tesla commissioning squad would prefer the latter, I'd bet
)

Looks like one of the two crews went on to Perry, OK. Perhaps the other went to Santa Rosa, NM.

Is there a way we can pressurize Tesla to finish Denton...this is much awaited supercharging location for sure. The other day I had to charge at the service center before I head back to E. Texas.

Does anyone know why the Denton Supercharger has been stuck in permitting for almost 5 months?
Is it local politics? The local car dealers? Or is there a legitimate reason for the delay?
It's puzzling that both new Texas Superchargers, Amarillo and Denton, seem to be stuck in bureaucratic limbo while others are being completed within weeks all over the world.

Denton is just waiting for Tesla (Black & Veatch) to get back to them. My assumption is that it's just a lower priority for the company.

"Waiting for plans from Tesla" was the phase Ardmore was in for 10-15 days.
But I wouldn't encourage a comparison... its Interurban Classic Grill site might have been fully agreed upon sooner, or more easily.
The plans we see (in meeting minutes, etc) include language and photo simulations. I can see that stuff needing rework if a site's exact location, orientation, power source, layout, or anything changes or is renegotiated.

The only thing that was going to end the drought was a flood.
The rain is just making the ground a lot softer to dig and trench in when they finally get the green light to begin construction.
(Never mind that they may have to make deliveries of Supercharger towers and transformer on flat-bottom boats and rafts...)

I imagine one of those would be the Denton supercharger, and it will certainly be nice to get that one built. I wonder where they would put a second one?

I was recently through there both coming and going. Bellmead to Ardmore, then Ardmore to Bellmead. It seems like Denton is needed only if you have a 60. Or, maybe, a 70.
I also made the jump from Blanding to Flagstaff. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to make it the other direction without an RV park stop.
