Has construction started on the Lubbock superchargers? Picking up my model 3 in a couple of weeks and planning a road trip. A quick charge in Lubbock would save a lot of miles.

Yeah, give us a clue where you are traveling to/from and we can often help with routing or charging suggestions.. We can't help in building a Supercharger, or there would be a LOT more of them...Has construction started on the Lubbock superchargers?

I do live in Lubbock, I will go by what I have a chance and look for any signs of activity.
Went and checked the Buddy Holly area and no sign of anything as of last week

Well I know that the new BestBuy has 30 amp chargepoint. Must have an account but it was free when i tried.
Also the Overton Hotel is now has 2 tesla destination charges.
But no news locally on the supercharger. Will update if I’m down that way and can check.

It's worth checking at the Buddy Holly center and see if they know anything.
I check the Lubbock permits and Dig Tess reports about twice a week. Nothing on either of them as of today.
Thanks for the update, hard to imagine that the hometown of Texas Tech University is not going to get their Supercharger in 2018!
As pure speculation, it may have something to do with either the local electrical utility or the planning/zoning boards. Either technical or extra regulatory barriers could make it significantly harder to get them installed. Not that they need to be close to outright prohibited but that lots of extra work, filings, meetings, and all around time to get things done would raise the non-hardware costs of installs significantly. etc. I'm not claiming this actually is the case, only offering a potential explanation for what might lead to such a wide discrepancy between the two cities.What's hard to believe is that such a big college town has so few chargers, period. Look at Plugshare. Amarillo has at least triple the number of destination chargers. Puts Lubbock to shame.
