Utica to Ottawa next week

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Hey Guys,

I am taking a trip next week around Thanksgiving from Utica to Ottawa.

The route I will be taking according to a Better Routeplanner is 81 > 401 > 416.

I see that the only charger I will encounter on the trip is the Watertown, NY one but thats on the US side. How is the charging infrastructure in Ottawa, and should I get myself a Chademo adapter?

Also is there a better route I can take?

I will be driving up from MD to Utica for Thanksgiving, then driving on from there.

Thanks!
ILLY

Good evening Azhagan, I am not sure at which point you will be coming across the border; but you may be able to visit Cornwall Supercharger or visit the Kingston, Ontario Supercharger.

In Ottawa, there are some really good chargers - destination ones. Depending on where you are going to stay, I would recommend The Brookstreet Hotel. They have 2 destination chargers on 80amps. + two J1772 chargers. Located in Kanata, just west of Downtown Ottawa - 15-20 minute drive to Parliament buildings from Brookstreet. Great rates and luxurious accommodations.

Worst-case you can come by our office and charge @ 70A. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance.

Oh that's awesome. I will definitely keep that in mind.

Great advice. I am coming up through the Thousand Islands Bridge so I think Kingston will be out of the way, so I am going to have to rely on destination chargers in Ottawa.

I am really excited for the trip.
