From I-5 North, just before the I-80 interchange, exit at West El Camino Avenue, and turn left at the end of the off ramp onto West El Camino. Turn right on Gateway Oaks Drive -- see below.

From I-5 South, past the I-80 interchange and West El Camino Avenue, exit at Garden Highway, and turn right at the end of the off ramp onto Garden Highway. Turn right on Gateway Oaks Drive -- see below.

Once on Gateway Oaks Drive, enter the second driveway past West El Camino. Look for the IBM sign near the driveway. (You can also enter the third driveway, where there is a Compaq sign.) The charger is directly in front of the 2710 Gateway Oaks building, on the left side, a few spaces left of the large fountain.

A one-block walk to the South there is a Deli, a Jack-in-the-Box, a convenience store, and the Greek Corner restaurant and pizza parlor. Chevy's, Crawdad's, and Woody's are about a one-mile hike to South, on the Garden Highway along the Sacramento River.

This charger is conveniently located near the intersection of I-5 and I- 80. It is the nearest charger to those at the Sacramento Airport, and the nearest charger to those in Davis. The charger can reach two parking spaces. Signage and striping is lacking at this time, but is due for installation "soon." The Saturn Regional office is in this building, so there may be an EV1 at the charger, but if the second space is accessible, normal charging protocol applies. Access could be a problem during regular office hours, especially until proper signage is installed.
