Supercharger - Omaha, NE (8801 West Center Rd.)

[DeepBlueMN]

It's happening

Great to see, but is there any evidence this is the actual supercharger work. (New transformer pad, the usual trenching, Tesla equipment, etc.)
I agree this will be great, and it is sorely needed, but we have been excited-then-disappointed before…

I know… But, is a cone really deserved? Normally there needs to be some evidence of actual supercharger-related work before a cone is just handed out.

It is semantics but when you see a small portion of a parking lot torn up that hasn't been touched for 20+ years, with piles of dirt, where you know Tesla has a permit, I think it is fairly safe to say what is going on there is "supercharger-related."

I suppose…
Obviously this is likely supercharger related.
But, we have seen parking construction at permitted sites multiple times on this forum site, and everybody got all excited, and then it turned out to be something else.

Or like the new superchargers under construction in Lincoln, where the stalls have been put in only to be ripped out -- twice!!

Cool… Looks like trenching for superchargers!

 

[Mr. Nuke]

Driving by on Center tonight at about 5 p.m. there were still workers at that site. A couple of Tesla energy crates have also shown up on the North side of the storage container.

Have there been any updates on this location recently?

I'm getting my first model 3 on Monday and if this station was up and running that would be amazing

 

[Feathered_prop]

I tested them again on Wed 5/31 and they were still not energized.

FWIW, Lincoln approved the final permit yesterday as I noted in that supercharger thread, but nothing that was outstanding with the Omaha supercharger was that major per Omaha's permitting inspection logs that would make me think it would take a month to resolve. Omaha had already approved the Public utility to pre-connect this site, and basically wanted to see some documentation the Tesla should've been able to supply right away as well as some labeling on equipment that should've also been easy to supply a month ago...

However, @RyanAndrews if you know where you're staying on your upcoming trip let us know if you need assistance in charging option recommendations. I thought you were going to be in good shape with this one, but it is looking like that probably won't be the case.

Meter is live but no power to the stalls as of the morning of 6/15/2023.
