Replacement attraction apparently will be announced this year

I love how LPS has taken an idea from the GC parks and added greenery to there construction fencing

Work happening on buzzsaw

It still amazes me that WWW isn’t open until after the Easter holidays. It can still be quite warm in April and generally the parks get busy during those holidays

Couple photos from TPSN

They’ve put some effort into the GD But Buzzsaw is still a yellow line apparently (along with many of the other attractions I don’t see the point of them investing time and money into this. Their in park map does the job. They should just stick with that

@Whombex they’ve just screenshot that photo from Snapchat. But a great public service announcement

The arms are back in place on Pandamonium but the reopening date has been pushed back a few days

I no longer have a VRTP pass, so here is my best contribution for a construction update

According to MWs Insta story, GL has reopened. Can anyone confirm?

That’s great news

Didnt they have the 3 different Batman’s at the 2019 event? They had a more comic book style suit, Dark Knight suit and the new daily one

They should’ve definitely installed some temporary shading. Why they didn’t surprises me. And for WWW, was it because of social distancing reasons. Maybe they’ve been told they need to manage the queues spacing and that was the solution because people aren’t capable of doing it on the stairs. But they should be setting one some gazebos of some sort to help with shading

That may be the case but it’s still got to be checked. And what about everything else’s? Harnesses, safety systems, etc.

Wow it’s a miracle. I can’t even remember the last time they had the water effect running

I’m surprised to see that BuzzSaw isn’t closed all year for construction.

@AlexB I haven’t got access to Nearmap anymore, would you mind doing an area calculation for the entire AA footprint please. Including Courtyard, coaster, queue building. They are also commenting on posts confirming to those who ask

Unfortunately not, only goes back to around 2010

@joz wow a never realised that, I assumed the current setup was how it was always since the ride opened. Does anyone happen to have any photos of this?

@Whombex “theming” Ive got no idea what it once was. I can only ever remember being like it is

Debatable

I really think the fencing let’s it down (as said in the article). It’s such a shame they couldn’t integrate the curvature of the walls in a way that meant fencing wasn’t required. Obviously some form of fence along the front is needed, but the integration of the exit is also a let down. Seems strange to have the exit point right next to the start of the queue, that could become a real bottle neck

According to TPSN there will be announcement about its replacement next year. I doubt we will here anything until 2022 at the earliest
