That is if they find a vaccine and administer it during offseason.

Here’s why. In 2003 Canada was hit by the SARS virus (a Coronavirus). After the initial outbreak died down, CW bought Time Warp. That move reportedly helped draw guests back into the park after the pandemic.

I’ve heard that from people outside of RMC and CF. It doesn’t surprise me given R&D and the amount of modifications made to the original ride.

True, but in 2016 CP received Valravn at $22-$25 million, and they got Steel Vengeance in 2018 for $30 million. That was in very similar circumstances.

Those markers were for Mystic. Maybe it’s something in 2022. Rides can be built over the course of many years, as seen with TTD and other coasters. It is also interesting there are reports of people surveying that area on Tuesday.

Here’s an info piece for those interested in the markers: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/decoding-the-city-the-road-graffiti-placed-by-utility-workers-42822014/

That wouldn’t require the excavation of a portion of the preferred lot.

Usually they are coded and numbered. For instance, if I was spraying up a road highlighting the sewer lines, I may make markings that say “sewer 1’ off”. The fact that we are getting markers for underground utilities and excavation is interesting.

They aren’t marking sewer lines/ runoff. This is a marking for a runoff drain along my jogging path.

Absolutely.

True, but Time Warp was not planned. It was added very late in the off season.

Canada’s Wonderland added back to back coasters after their attendance dipped due to the Coronavirus of 2002-04.

The “me first” mentality of our society would have prevented social distancing from being effective. Don’t blame the park for the delays on opening day. Blame it on those who did not follow the procedures set up by the park of arriving at the preselected time. @coaster sally, I’m sorry you had a bad experience, but there’s no need to take it out on park management. Very few things changed since opening days, which indicates the park had a solid plan for reopening.

@coaster sally, the fact of the matter is opening the lot at 10:30 was a smart move. Had they opened up the lots any earlier, people would have congregated outside the main entrance, creating a situation ripe for spreading the virus. Attacking one character because you can’t ride a $30 million dollar ride at night, in the year of the pandemic, is extremely selfish and dumb. Posts like what you’ve just typed out is why enthusiasts get a bad rap.

Or it could be two projects. They could be expanding the waterpark entrance plaza?

I’m curious what’s going on with the Action Zone portion of the site that extends into the parking lot.

So, my question is, how large could the new entryway be? Will it be like Worlds of Fun, or have something like Cedar Point?

I have no idea what they mean, as they are case specific. The interesting thing is they are in sequence, and if they’re related to runoff- there wasn’t any work by The Bat’s creek. The 2 may refer to 2 feet off of marker.

Not only that, it looks like they are still adding to it. They wrote the identifying markers for each stake today.

Here’s a picture of an spray indicating excavation in the Preferred Parking lot. Before this gets ridiculed, I’ve done surveying and markings in the past, and the sprays beside it were similar to what I did in construction. That being said, the site runs along the outlined map I’ve made.

There’s more markers, and it extends into parking lot.

We’re talking about Kings Island, not Geauga Lake. KI is the stalwart of the Cedar Fair chain.
