It’s next to the PetSmart and Office Depot and across the street from Costco. Quiet and not too crowded.

I thought the old Albertsons parking lot next to Sonic Burger might have been a better choice, but nice to have another option on I5

According to the article Guacahummus linked to in the first post, these permits were issued back in April and construction may begin soon!

Whoop whoop! All for more superchargers on I5, though can't help but wonder about Central/Southern/Eastern Oregon and the wide open spaces over there in many spots.

Yeah, like Lakeview, OR, which would support East-West traffic on 140 and North-South traffic on 395.

I visited Lakeview overnight recently and there was a decent free L2 charger at the Ford dealership there, but yes, superchargers would have been way better.

Probably have to wait for Blackstone to start and finish their work at Altamont and Grants pass before they head here. Once we see dig tickets we will know when work is imminent.

I am at this site at least 3 times a week. Will post updates when I see action!

Yep, I found that one on Plugshare a while back. The stretch between Klamath Falls, OR and Winnemucca, NV is just a bit too far to attempt in our Model 3. But I hesitate to rely on that L2 charger in Lakeview in case it's broken or ICEd or something at the time. No back-up plan. So instead we loop down through Reno...

This is marked as in review as of 8/11. Another site where the permit has been applied for but not approved. Usually these make it through but there is no guarantee it will be approved or when. You can follow the progress on the permitting site and dont need to check it in person until the permit has been issued.

Or a dig ticket can sometimes mean work is imminent.

Was there not even a 200x400ft portion marked in white?

There were some water line markings (blue) and white markings, but not along the perimeter parking stalls. They were around the center island parking stalls between the perimeter and petsmart.

The width of the spaces in the plans is about 90ft so 200x400ft would include the center island. If the only markings for utilities are in the center island area, that means the area where the stalls are going is clear.

The dig has begun!

Nice! I missed it by a couple days.

Preach!! Hell yes, my buddy and I have had a running joke for years now, “what about lakeview?” (We were saying this even pre-medford, pre-yreka)

Plans were approved today and permit was also issued today. It’s like they were sitting around waiting.
