Ground Breaking on West Coast Electric Highway

From WSDOT:
http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/News/2011/12/28_BellinghamEVcharging.htm

Construction begins in Bellingham on the state’s first rapid charging station for electric vehicles. This is part of the West Coast Electric Highway project, an effort to create a chain of these charging stations, ensuring that electric vehicles will be able to travel for long distances.

While a good idea, I am still not fully convinced that electric vehicles, as they are designed today, are really suited for long distance travel. But we will see.
