Supercharger - Madison, WI - South Livingston
- Thread starter rhummer
- Start date
I took some photos the following day at this upcoming Supercharger location. 
Went by here last weekend. No pictures, but the bags are off the chargers now. Cabinet on the far corner was getting placed. No progress on the pavement, and no sign yet of the additional EA chargers that are also planned to be here.

There are teslas driving all over Madison, yet no one has bothered to post an update with photos in over a month for this site. I get that this site will take quite a while to get up and running due to the scope of work going on here, but still, it should be updated occasionally even if nothing more the saying no changes since the last post.
Okay, I’m done ranting

There's not much to update. Chargers are fully up, parking lot is not paved, and no progress on the Electrify America chargers, 10 of which will also be present on site in the parking stalls facing East Wash. Though I haven't driven by since last Saturday, admittedly, but that's been the status since early
Sept, maybe even late August.
My guess is that they're waiting on the EA chargers to be placed before doing anything else - not sure if that's a concern for the wiring trenches and/or the pavement, but it must be something holding them back. Everything on the Tesla side *looks* good to go.

MG&E is waiting on the lot to be paved and Tesla giving them the go a head to turn them on. They won't be waiting for the other DC chargers to be installed. According to the info I have.

From this past Saturday evening: we have pavement and paint! Given the info from rhummer above, we might be close. The sign at the front barricade isn't any help, and the barricade is the only sign of construction at the site.
Wisconsin Tesla Facebook post reports this site is live.
Nothing showing on the in car supercharger map yet. In fact Tesla doesn’t even have the location Pinned “Coming Soon’ on their Find Us map
@rhummer care to go for short drive to verify it? Traffic is light this evening
I haven't seen anything via Club news or a FB post saying it's online. I do have some free SuC miles to burn. I'll swing by on Friday
Swung by just now and the lot is still blocked - looks the same as it has for a couple weeks now. There was an MGE truck and a truck from some metalworking company I believe. A few guys on site.
Soon...
Soon...

I gotta say I don't understand the number of false reports coming from that Facebook group. Do some people get their rocks off telling lies?
Poster in that same group correctly reported St. Peter was open a few days ago, so they're not always wrong. Just get verification before relying on a report.
Yeah reports from the WI Club, folks have been pushing past the barriers to try and test them out it seems. Like I mentioned above MG&E is just waiting for Tesla to say they can flip'em on, and barriers be removed as well it seems
