Once Tesla completes the Erie, Harrisburg, and I-80 supercharger installations, I'd like to see them add one more off of I-99 near Altoona.
This is the route between Pittsburgh and Penn State main campus:
There are no superchargers along this route. It's ~150 miles one-way (depending on your exact starting location). That's a 300 mile round-trip. Doable if you plan on sticking around long enough at a destination charger, but it's unfortunately too long to make the entire round trip. One would currently have to drive 50 miles out of the way on the turnpike to Somerset to reach a supercharger.
I would suggest putting one in the vicinity of Logan Valley Mall. This location is just off the intersection of I-99 and route 22.
There are many restaurants within walking distance. Both Eat'n Park and Denny's are open 24 hours.
Lots of shopping too.
Would anybody else be able to make use of such a location? Are there any other good potential supercharger locations along this route?
