Markers Placed by Old Columbia Rd.
My interest rose with the markers along Columbia Road. These two events occurring simultaneously is an interesting development.

Put a new station there and connect the markers- you could get a coaster with a dogleg layout.

With the station coming out, the question is, what fits that spot and the location of the markers?
-

The thing is that people do notice. When I was taking pictures of the station, people kept on mentioning how that used to be the station for SOB.

Well those wires have been cut. They’re not being replaced.
-

The cutting of electrical wiring would make sense as a preliminary step towards taking down that structure.
-

It looks like they’re removing the electrical systems.

Lights on at SOB queue and station.

Discussing Land and Space in and around Vortex
I wouldn’t say that. I think they are creating a patio. It gets quite congested on the walkway between Vortex and Backlot.

They’ve removed the straw from in front of the fence.

Yes, check out this tweet.

It looks like a lot of land has been cleared out.

I wouldn’t say so. They’re kind of like the rough draft of research reports. They can change at a moments notice depending on the data being returned from the experiment. This pandemic will have a greater impact on future years 2024 onwards, rather than 2022 because of the contracts that have been made and signed.

The question is, with 5-year plans allowing wiggle room (flat ride becomes coaster that couldn’t be built at original park), could a coaster planned in the original 5 year plan still be built?

How do you know something wasn’t already paid for? Currently we have over 40 markers, in a 5 acre plot of land.

That would be correct, i made the same deduction. The fact surveyors have been observed conducting a survey of the elevation of the land is rather interesting, IMO.

2018: predicted Giga coaster from horizontal construction related to installation of expanded runoff system - got Orion 2018 CP: Predicted removal of Witches Wheel in 2019 - got BBQ. You might think I have zero credibility, but I have shown you two cases where I made an accurate prediction well ahead of time.

I’m thinking this is something for 2022/2023 timeframe.

Those were for a second project, the updating of utilities. There are cables at the entrance. Pink means temporary survey. White means excavation point. Orange means telecommunication/electrical lines. Yellow means high pressure steam, gas lines. All 4 of those have been seen in the vicinity of the area we are talking about.

@silver2005, so I’m guessing KIC is requiring members to send in Resumes now. @IndyGuy4KI, @malemknows I’ve done work in construction, so I don’t need to explain it any further.

I have experience with surveying and placing markers. The work being done here seems like something for vertical construction. That’s what I meant.

Here’s the thing we have telecommunications, excavation, and hydraulic survey markers. Roads don’t need that. Furthermore, to have a road transport workers, it would have to have the bus cross the main route by guests to get into the park. It would be very impractical. They already have a shuttle, and the time saved by this hypothetical new route, wouldn’t be worth the cost. When you have excavation markers, you’re not just removing the road, you are removing part of the surrounding area as well. The size of this area is so large it points to one outcome.

But why would they need to change tele-communication lines, conduct temporary survey and alter recently built runoff lines? If anything this would have been done before the dorms were finished.

There’s a pathway from GWL to KI. It takes less than 10 minutes to walk it.

There’s a nice Demon reference.
