Further update: V4 mounts on the same square ponies as V3 so it is entirely possible that V3s could be swapped out with no groundworks. No indication if Tesla plan to do this though.

Hi @PB1975 - sorry to ask but it’s been about a month since you said VERY soon…. Any update on what the delay is and a likely timeframe?
I know I know it’s fleet south but I couldn’t resist asking again

Went past the other day and there was a Tesla Service vehicle parked in one of the bays. Unsure if it was just a ranger stopping for lunch or actual work going on.

The Teals farm shop site on the A303, mentioned a while back, is under construction. It is not a Tesla Supercharger but still looks like it will be a decent rapid charging hub.

TOUK have tweeted a drawing from planning application for a four-bay V4 supercharger near M8 J4A (Whitburn).
I did a search and am yet to find the application on a planning website. There is a recent application in the vicinity of J4A for an EV rapid charger but this for two Alpitronic HYC150 units serving four charging spaces at a Euro Garage (West Lothian Council ref 0466/FUL/23).
The TOUK tweet says the proposed 4-bay Supercharger would be the "second known UK V4 supercharger site" but I don't think it even makes the podium since Stranraer, Moffat, Gretna - Caledonia Park, Larkhall and Port Solent all mention V4 chargers in their planning applications (see the wiki post for detail). Still, the more the merrier!

Apparently the main electricity infrastructure is on the opposite side of the road to the showroom. So I’m guessing they’re having issues scheduling the work which will likely cause a lot of disruption to that and surrounding roads.

Slightly off topic, sorry, but if in that area and not in a rush the rather good Haynes Motor Museum just a little way away has four Pod Point chargers each with two sockets giving 7kWh, a reasonable cafe and an excellent car and bike collection.
Posted on the TOUK Facebook group regarding Fleet Southbound:
"I was there this morning around 11, I did think I might have a chance at a mug as the covers were off.
There were 2 Tesla engineers there working on the tombstones. Asked them how things were going, they said they were almost done with the set up / electrics etc but didn’t know when it would all go live…’above their pay grade’ was the response."

Construction has started at Tamworth services but as yet no hardware to tell if it’s Tesla.
It looks like it’s an similar set up to Blyth services. Both gridserve and Tesla should be installed at same time! Anyone passing could get some pictures and see? Started building works about a month ago!
Fences removed and lines painted at Exeter Services Supercharger. Live soon? Bonus: Noticed Starlink receiver for the first time but couldn’t connect to it via mobile
I went to the cricket at Old Trafford today and on the way home saw the White City SuperChargers from across the street as a passenger in a friend’s car.
Much the same as the new chargers at Exeter above, stalls in place and wrapped with black plastic and other components wrapped up in the Tesla white plastic.
