    An update for a Supercharger in Staunton Virginia for 8 stalls at 120 kW is under construction. Update from Supercharge info E632439D-09A1-4B33-9BB6-9D5D5D2E98D7.jpeg

    I have a friend who lives in Staunton. I've asked him if he can get some photos.

    Wow construction looks complete. I wonder how many more of these are around that we don’t know about.

    Great location for those traveling south from dc area. I am hoping for another one in Roanoke.

    We sometimes travel from the Richmond metro area to visit relatives OH, and take the I64 -> US250 -> I79 route, since it is more scenic. We haven't done that since getting the Tesla due to range anxiety. But it looks like new superchargers have opened since our last trip, and will re-enable this route for us. I'm thrilled that they're filling in the gaps in the network.

    On Supercharge info a user stated that the chargers should be active by next week.

    Roanoke one is needed and I think should be ready in 2019.

    I’d like to see one in Blacksburg, VA too.

    This is good news. That crappy Greenlots chademo charger downtown was often broken.

    I live in Roanoke too.
    Have been thinking about getting a Tesla owner's group together if there isn't one already.

    As far as I know there is no owner's group here in Roanoke. There are at least a dozen Teslas in the area.

    I think a Roanoke/NRV Owners Group would be great. My father, who owns one, lives in Radford and I know he knows a couple of owners in Blacksburg.

    Has anyone been able to confirm that this site did go Live? Looks like it still says "Under Construction" on the status page.

    Tesla's website is not showing it live (although sometimes there is a lag from when the supercharger is operational and when Tesla's website reflects operational status). Also remember that supercharge.info gets it's info from these forums.

    This is awesome! Much more convenient to our mountain place than Charlottesville. Plenty of shopping around there too.

    I stopped by this afternoon. To the untrained eye construction appears to be complete but the Superchargers are not active.

    My friend who lives in Staunton stopped by today. He said Dominion Power was there. The guy told me they are waiting for one more cable to be run. He said it won't come online today, but should very soon.
