I believe there will be Superchargers: they have sufficient nearby power (nearest substation is a few hundred metres away and accessible mostly via a soft-dig), it is clearly policy to include 8+ Superchargers at all possible service centres, and finally, the planning permission shows angled bays marked at the entrance alongside a pair of new square objects that don’t currently exist. Hopefully those objects are cabinets and the bays are for Superchargers.

The Old Halliwell Jones Ford Garage on Sealand Rd will be the Chester Service Centre, I talked with a couple of Stockport staff who will probably transfer but got the impression it will initially have only destination chargers (may depend on what happens with the planned Mountain Park Hotel Flint Superchargers?)
Yes, planning documents all submitted a few months back. It has a lot of space so Superchargers should be inevitable. Fingers crossed.
Planning documents do show wall connectors, but there is also an obvious space that looks set aside for Superchargers.

Chester/Flint detail from that map.
....& deselecting Superchargers from the menu bar - only Service appears unlike other sites where both are present (Service Centre hidden under Supercharger icon)

Yes, it looks like map has just been updated with some new ones. There is now one on the other side of Manchester marked as Trafford. As some are just going in at Intu shopping centres such as Uxbridge, I wonder if this one will be Intu Trafford Centre.
Interesting to see some more accurate timings for when they go live. Some are showing a Q1 or Q2. At least one says 2022.

Now that they have added quarters to the map Ferrybridge is showing as Q1. So it could be done by the next time I get to leave my house!
I have not heard any reports that any work has started there so they will have to get on with it?

Very interestingly Oxford Peartree has disappeared and a new location (at least first time I’ve seen it) Oxford Redbridge has shown up for Q4 2021. That would be nice and handy for me hopefully in future post pandemic times on semi-regular A34/A43/M1 trips. Location seems to be at the park and ride there.

No sign of uckfield Gridserve (although planning not granted yet).
On another note, no new sites in Scotland it suggests, Brighton still showing as 2022 and Crawley pin has been removed. Yes there is the service centre site, however there was talk of a site at pease pottage.

At least Scotland got some this year!
There were zero new sites in 2020 in Wales and the plan for 2021 is one less site than before!
I know there are supposedly grid issues in some parts of Wales so it may not be Tesla's fault but its still disappointing for those of us who live in or visit Wales.

Just seen a post on Reddit and it appears to have been updated globally.
Shame about Bulith Wells certainly

There's a site at Ferndown, Bournemouth for Q3 2021 showing, is that new? Don't recall seeing one there before.
Do any longtimers here know what the hit rate of proposed vs realised SuC stations is?
I'm looking lustfully at the King's Lynn one slated for Q3 2021 but note that many other 'late 2020' ones are, er, pushing it a bit to make that date
