Hello there. I am very new to these forums & i'm still learning how to use this but i think that work will continue on big dipper as construction is considered and essential service from what my husband has told me. Im not super sure what exactly the ride elements are (one of you fellow members might be able to tell me) but i think that they will finish doing the big element stuff that is next to the apartments behind Coney island, And for your last question i think that it will open in time for the start of the summer school holidays but if it's a first in the world won't it take 2-4 months to do all the testing?
Sincerely sorry if i'm confusing.
