Still shows as out of service on the map, but I’m there right now and charging. It’s as empty as I’ve ever seen it, though. Just me and an X. Don’t know how much of that is the weather and how much is the bad map info

Supercharger - Lone Tree, CO
- Thread starter airj1012
- Start date
Looks like Lone Tree isn't reporting issues in the app anymore. It currently shows 10 of 10 stalls available.
Just drove by the Park Meadows and all 10 were working and had cars connected. 3 Other cars were in queue.
I live down in the Springs, but have gotten caught a few times having to charge at this location. Seems like there is always a line and the charging speed is just awful. Is this just a really terrible supercharger or do I just get really unlucky? Last two times I've been it was full and my charging was between 80-95mph.

Yeah this location needs an upgrade. An upgrade to the speed and the number of stalls. Honestly, I think this location could use 20 stalls. It is crazy busy during lunch and evening hours. Also needs V3 upgrade desperately. Hopefully with the other supercharger locations opening soon, it will ease the load on this location.

I think a setup like that would be great if it was in Castle Rock and it could coincide with the opening of a Pueblo charger. Then travelers could skip stopping in Denver and Colorado Springs.
Castle Rock outlets would be a great location. I still think Park Meadows will be busy no matter what, but people driving through wouldn't have to depend on it.
Colorado Mills and Thornton should also ease the load.

I was thinking the same thing. Need to start scoping out potential locations in Castle Rock! Also, once they add a DTC location, it could really help reduce traffic at this location as well.

Hmm yes Castle Rock would be helpful but Pueblo would have allowed me to skip CoSpgs altogether. Talk about a mess of a location and unhealthy charger. CHAdeMO would have been faster.
I really hope they crack the Clayton, NM SC first though once and for all after seeing how much of a nail biter that segment is.
On I-70 though Flagler is also a good location and would compete with the local EA install.

Clayton would be great but if they are having trouble with finding a location, then I think Dalhart would be a good alternative location. It would really help them if they ever plan on having a charger in Lamar and they would open up the 287/385 route between Denver and Amarillo.

Or both. I’d take both.
Perhaps one day we will see some form of DC fast charging or at least L2 at every large travel plaza.
Hmm maybe into that little parking lot?
Think that would be pretty good as it moves the cars / waiting cars out of the way, plus no reason for ice cars to go in there.
Good idea. I was looking all around the parking lot on Google Maps but didn't look that close!
From what I gathered, it sounded like it won't even be on Park Meadows property. Like across County Line Rd.
That's good and bad, the location is great if you need to shop / eat etc but sucks because this location is so busy with traffic etc.

A site improvement plan for Park Meadows that has was submitted to the city of Lone Tree shows that these chargers are slated for removal as part of the redevelopment. The plans do not show them getting moved into the new parking structures that will be built, however that could be a subsequent site improvement plan.
