@Im Hungry image doesn’t work and I searched for their account and it doesn’t appear to have anything either?

It seems like there hasn’t been any major works been done since May. Construction of the station and maintenance building will probably take 4-6 weeks. Then we will have testing for 4-6 weeks. Plus landscaping, pathways, theming and signage. There probably another 3 months worth of work to go at the minimum. So if we don’t see work start up again next month, I don’t think we will see a December opening

@Brad2912 yes I did. Id like to think you already have, but have you contacted the park or asked guest services to fix the issue?

They are over the queue not the track

From my recent visits, it doesn’t appear that they’ve started on the station/queue yet. @Naazon might be able to confirm But things aren’t looking confident for a Summer opening. But they might not be in a rush anymore because of the border/lockdown uncertainty at the moment. They might decide to push for an Easter 2022 opening instead

@zacsta_1997 I did an update a week ago. And there was nothing worth taking photos of.

It is a no brainer and would look so much better, but they won’t. With the budget for this attraction, we won’t be getting that at all. It’s a shame because there was so much opportunity for something like that and heaps of rockwork throughout. But unfortunately when they are being budget conscious we aren’t going to get something like that.

For anyone who still thought the train would be doing the loop around Blue Lagoon, they definitely aren’t.

Well played. I’ll let you know when it is.

On my way home this evening, I thought I’d pass by the site to see how it was looking. And I can officially say that vertical construction has definitely begun. And here is some proof

There are quite a few areas in the park that look temporary, but they very much aren’t

Hopefully they landscape around that path really nicely and have some taller ones along that block wall. They could even create an Instagram wall where the path is hard against the wall

That rockwork turned out really nicely. I wish there was more of it

@taronga the same could be said for Australia Zoo. They have got plenty of animals that aren’t Australian

Meerkats

They’ve teased this on TikTok

I think you’re right about farm animals returning, but I’d say they’ll just use the facilities they already have. Why waste money building something when you already have it.

Announcement coming next week

Dreamworld have now also reduced their hours

I do like they are brining Kenny and Belinda back into the park through this like this

Classic VRTP socials not knowing what’s closed for maintenance
