Not sure if anyone here is part of the supercharge.info team, but the marker for this charger seems to have taken a quaint trip to Null Island off the coast of Africa. Someone forgot to add GPS coords

Ha that was me. I missed a 5 out at beginning of the coordinates .Not sure if anyone here is part of the supercharge.info team, but the marker for this charger seems to have taken a quaint trip to Null Island off the coast of Africa. Someone forgot to add GPS coords
Thanks, that explains the postponed completion date on the Tesla website.I drove through Eastbound Birch Services last Sunday and could not see anything that looked like civils / SC build etc...
It's been a while since Charnock Richard Supercharger access came up on the forum. It's on the northbound side (M6) and there used to be reports of no access from the southbound services. Is this still the case?
Adapado, my home Wall Connector failed in the deepest darkest time of lockdown and I popped to Charnock Richard for a charge. Must have been last Autumn at a guess. I did the shortcut over the bridge and was charging no problem and never received anything about my cheeky little diversion in the post or anything. However, whilst charging I I did see a Mini that had come into the Northbound ’secret‘ entrance engaging with a Police car in some shape or form for about 5 minutes at the entrance. I obviously don’t want to be alarmist about it as I have no idea what they were talking about. Could have been a chat about the weather for all I know but it did get me wondering if it does get monitored still when there are Police around. Also worth bearing in mind that it obviously wasn‘t a shortcut to Tesla charging and it could be that, with a good reason to do the shortcut, it’s less of a ‘crime’?It's been a while since Charnock Richard Supercharger access came up on the forum.

Looks like the same mess as ever. I’ve never understood why it has to be a problem when it works at some other locations eg TebayAdapado, my home Wall Connector failed in the deepest darkest time of lockdown and I popped to Charnock Richard for a charge.

has there any been any official comment as to whether it’s definitely allowed or is it just a Tesla Driver acceptance that nobody has ever been nicked and so it must be allowed?
EDIT: a quick search turned up this so ignore my last question England M6 Charnock Richard SC
Oxford Redbridge details now released to the press. 12x V3.
Oxford to get Europe’s ‘most powerful’ electric car charging hub | Auto Express
First of 40 planned Pivot Power ‘Superhubs’ will arrive in Oxford later this year, with 38 fast and rapid EV public chargerswww.autoexpress.co.uk
It’s not a route I’m familiar with but when I was looking at the map I did wonder whether it would be valuable for A34 traffic despite being close to the other Oxford site.The A34 for a main route down to Southampton / Bournemouth isn’t well served at present. I can see this one coming in handy along with planned ones at Winchester & one north of Southampton on the M27.
The other one near Oxford is on the M40 and is a little out of the way for A34 traffic and is V2. It might get busy as it serves both northbound & southbound traffic. There are some on the M40 at Warwick and also a little way off the M40 at Banbury, but for me something a little further south is ideal from a personal perspective.It’s not a route I’m familiar with but when I was looking at the map I did wonder whether it would be valuable for A34 traffic despite being close to the other Oxford site.
and those of us driving northCould do with a bit of "leveling up" for those of us in the north!
Let’s not be too pushy though Andy. I’m just thankful we have recently been allowed to have roads.Could do with a bit of "leveling up" for those of us in the north!
