Supercharger - Fairfield, CA - Travis Blvd. (LIVE 4 May 2018, 12 V2 stalls)

[ecarfan]

Man, how does a supercharger station under construction this long go undetected in California?

It has happened before. The second San Mateo Supercharger was nearly completed before it was reported on TMC. The not yet open San Felipe Supercharger was pretty far along before it was reported. There are others out there right now that are underway and there is nothing on TMC about them...

True that, my family and I discovered the fully completed Fish Camp, CA Supercharger before it was posted anywhere. Amazing how that can happen!

Also Monterey. That one was truly stunning (that no one noticed).

There are less of us TMCers out there than we think there are, which I think explains how these sometimes get missed. Plenty of people (and even Tesla owners) are seeing them, but nobody's dropping in here to let us know.

Any word yet? I may need to use it tomorrow night or Sat AM.

Unfortunately you will be out of luck, as there are still multiple steps to go before this one is ready to charge. It will probably be several weeks at least - there are often delays getting a transformer installed, passing final inspections, and getting hooked up to the grid.

Just passed by today. Not yet open.
10 stalls.
I work in Vacaville and never find it full during the week, but have seen lines of Tesla on Saturdays.
I predict Fairfield will be very busy considering how close a walk it is to food and r restrooms.

Stopped by today.

• Construction equipment gone
• Cables installed
• Tire stops in place
• 12th station out of frame to the right. Off on its own.
• No signage. (Would assume there will be)

Are those lane markers correct? They look mis-aligned.

The markings on the pavement look pretty weathered so I’d say in my uneducated opinion that the correct striping has yet to be done.

Signs and striping could be done in a day. Let’s see how long before PG&E turns it on.

 

[Dadiggaman]

I pass by almost daily. No changes today. Charging here will be more convient than Vacaville for me.

 

[PLUS EV]

Drove by this morning. No change since 2T Stano's last pic on March 10th.

 

[Dadiggaman]

Here is a photo from Tuesday, April 3rd. Some work is being done on the sidewalk surrounding the superchargers. No signs that they will be opening any time soon.

I wonder if that 12th pedestal that isn’t visible in your photo will be “trailer friendly”...

I don't believe it's trailer friendly. The last pedestal is at the green arrow.

Any update? I was hoping to stop this Saturday on the way to the Bay Area from Sacramento.

If it does not show as being open right now in your car navigation, don’t assume you will be able to use it this Saturday.

More trailer friendly than you might think depending on how popular those spaces are to ICE vehicles. I'm not familiar with the area, but "if" the space in front is empty it becomes a pull thru stall.

Edit.. nevermind, one way aisle.. pretty tough.. booo!

Unfortunately, with the typical length of the supercharging cable, you wouldn't be able to park too far forward of that spot in solid green. Which means even the smallest trailer would be blocking the aisle.
