Per request

Markham Supercharger material was delivered October 18 to CF Markville Mall at Highway #7 and McCowan. Construction starts soon!

WOO!!!

Let's hope that this came on a big truck and it also delivered to other sites in the GTA that just haven't been spotted yet.

YES!!!! Close to my mothers house. Hopefully it won't be as bad as the Toronto SC.

It won't be as the main reason that one is so bad is that it is a service centre and Tesla is often using some of the SCs. There are also several SCs planned for the city of Toronto through the 2018 period as well as many of the 'burbs.

I don't know... that mall is pretty busy especially on the weekends. Depending where it is on the lot, there is a good potential for icing...

In case you aren't familiar with Icing Denis gives a good explanation 'ere:

Approx. location of the future SuCs

I drove by today. It's not a good spot for ICE'ing I don't think as it's fairly far from the mall. It's actually fairly close to the South East intersection. I suppose some people could park there and then take the bus somewhere though. McDonalds and the Markville foodcourt are close by.

I guess my biggest beef is it's one of the busiest intersections in Markham and I try to avoid that area of town, which means I likely won't use it much. Was hoping for something further North in Markham. Oh well, definitely not complaining though! Now that I think about it, this is actually likely going to incent me to go to the mall and spend more money there than I would if I just charged at home and paid for it.

It would be much useful if further west. Say Woodbine/hwy 7

Don't forget that the plans call for one in Vaughan and one in Concord so that should give you three SCs in the Hwy 7/407 corridor. You may want them spaced out a bit. The Concord one by the 400/407 intersection, the Vaughan one by Yonge and 407/7 and then this one in Markham.

That would be great too. Just happy we're seeing more SC love in general though!

Found the place on supercharge.info and found a more precise location on maps. Is it precise @DMC-Orangeville?
2nd of all, I think it's a bad location for travellers from the east like me, which can't take the 407ETR unless willing to waste however much that HWY costs to then drive to Muskoka to visit friends. I think Vaughan is the best place of all because of places like Vaughan Mills or the IKEA Vaughan, along the 404 which can feed you with great food (and chocolate too)

Is this the only site so far that is supposed to be completed by the end of 2017 that looks to be on schedule? Wondering about the Meadowvale Mississauga site is being prepped too.

Hopefully this is the start of full-on construction in the GTA. Again - don't forget that this isn't the only SC to be constructed. @Mr. PlugShare - there is also supposed to be a SC built in Pickering this year. If you are coming from the east to go to Muskoka you can stop there. But there are also (already existing) SCs in Port Hope, Barrie and Huntsville to use along that route. And if you are going to Muskoka and your time is worth more than $5/hr I would absolutely recommend paying the tolls to take Hwy 407 rather than taking the 401. The Ikea in Vaughan is not along the 404, it is at the 400 and 407. And there is a SC on the map for Concord in 2017 (Concord is a neighbourhood within Vaughan) which should be close to the intersection of Hwy 407&400. And there is also another SC set for 2017 for Vaughan itself in addition to the ones in Concord and Markham.

Do you know if Meadowvale is being prepped? The Owen Sound location is being prepped so that is at least two in Ontario and there are rumours about Ottawa and Hawksbury as well.

I would be very happy if one is going to be built @ hwy7/Yonge. However, I would be even happier if Tesla can build them out to PEI

About time!
I would like to see one on Hwy 7 and 37 in Tweed!

Ottawa would be good for a Prodigal's return visit to the Alma Mater.
