Busch Dominion's third InvadR Construction Update went live today! It features a bunch of photos of everything going on at the construction site. You can view it at the link below.

InvadR Construction Update #3 and More

So happy to see most of the utility work is complete onsite and real vertical construction is starting to speed up!

 

[BenWilkerson]

So...does anyone have any updates on construction?

It looked like the base of the first drop is pretty much done. Lots of work was going on in the entrance plaza too.

The base and tunnel portion for the first drop is pretty close to being done. They've started working on ramps for the entry plaza to the station as well as some posts have gone up, not sure if they're for lighting or path coverings/awnings. Based on the theme, I would assume lighting.

As of the past weekend.

That looks very nice, can't wait for the finished product. I have high hopes that this new coaster is going to be really well themed.

 

[Kyle]

I'm going in on BGW Family with this one, here's one as of Tuesday. Looks like they're starting to go more into structure with some infrastructure (phone, electrics, etc) The workers were not amused with me taking their picture XP

Hey guys, long time reader first time poster here on the site. Any word when more fan voting will be taking place for InvadR?

I'm not so sure, maybe they will, maybe they won't. The big voting process came early this year when deciding the official name of the new wooden coaster.

 

[Jcoaster]

Yea, I was just wondering if there would be more too it than just the name decision process.

I'm assuming we may see more when they're further into development of the queue's theme and trains' theming.

 

[Jcoaster]

Yea, I'm hoping for some "Cobra's Curse" style theming. Maybe a Viking Ship of sorts interacting with the layout.

I don't believe this coaster set up for something like that as interesting as that would be.

 

[Luke]

Yay found a Viking pusheen!

 

[Jcoaster]

Well did anyone else see King's Island announcement tonight? A huge GCI woodie. I wonder how InvadR is going to be compared to it.

 

[Kyle]

Looks like InvadR is gearing up for night construction this evening. They were draining Le Scoot and lights all around the construction site (mainly station/queue area) were going up.

 

[Jcoaster]

^ Wow, things really are going to look totally different.

Well having a water ride down in the middle of a hot summer isn't the best thing to do so it would make sense they'd do whatever work they can at night to minimize Le Scoot's downtime.
