Here's an Update of this Spot from My Trip Today.

Just in case anyone missed the entire site plan posted back in October Both entry and exit pathways are ramped up from street level, while the RideExpress lane does have a short set of stairs up to the grouping area.

If we're being realistic, that whole end of the park needs a massive Rivertown level upgrade. Gold Coaster is now 30 years old. It's rough and unreliable, and it's approaching the end of its life. That station area could be used for another slide tower. The Thuderbolt plot has been sitting empty for 20 years and is perfect for a WWW expansion - including a lazy river. You could even put a new coaster in that area and have it interact with the water park like GC currently does. Effectively everything from the Wipeout plot through to Kevil Hill needs redevelopment. Something like Barrels Smokehouse being moved to bridge the parks would be good - especially if they were to build a proper (themed) bar on the DW side so there's a place for adults to just chill and have a drink.

If WWW is to gain popularity - it needs to offer more than a single burger joint at the front gate - with some more variety too.... Having something straddle both parks would make an outlet like that more viable, and reduce the strain on the burger joint at the front.

I'm not sure we want kids in wet swimmers playing with electronic games - but even if that was ok, I don't really want to sit down in a wet seat for a car race either. Arcades do not belong in waterparks.

A good reminder how bad the sign was @themagician hopefully, never to be repeated.

We’ve known this for a month, but MW shared this

Adventure World has submitted an application for a new ride for 2025, with the removal of Rampage plus Inferno and Black widow getting much older (Black Widow was closed this entire season) I personally recon we might see a new dry ride rather than water. My pick would be a Gerslaur sky roller, I guess time will tell.

It makes *some* sense, the highest (easily) climbable point on the Model T is like 3 feet (the back seat rest) whereas the highest climbable point on the Fire Truck is easily above 7 feet and if you have a bunch of kids climbing and rough housing on that thing it's more likely than not someone falls off. That said I said it makes "SOME" sense, for reasons I'm sure are very granular and come from an insurance point of view, but I don't agree with it either. For example, there's a climbing structure for kids in our local shopping mall that, while enclosed is like 15-20 feet high and any kid can go on it and (presumably) fall to injury or worse and yet it's still there after god-knows how many years. So yeah, I don't agree with the Fire Truck being inaccessible, but I understand it from a presumably very insurance minded and risk-aversion management that Dreamworld is no-doubt focused on after ~the incident~.

Block walls are being built to create the ‘pit’ for the ride floor to drop down into. This means that there will likely be a ramp/stairs in the queue to get you up to the ride. Also, the form work for the ride structures footings are in ready for the concrete pour Photos by Theme Park Ogre

Greg young was just interviewed on Danes Theme Park Life once again, they are wanting a non thrill ride for White water world, good podcast, imo sounding like the lazy river as he mentioned through put etc
