A
view of the site from the monorail, construction is moving at a more rapid
pace, In the left hand corner new footers have been placed, these concrete
footers will support the steel tubular sections of the first drop. |
The
final turn of Nemesis, the lift hill footers have been in place since the
start of the season and all awaits is the lift hill track. |

tunnel work is complete, with walls and a floor, currently the remaining
walls are being filled with concrete. |

This
picture has been taken from where the break run will be, soon the flat land
in front will be the station and the track will travel through the tunnel
ahead. |
This
picture has been taken from the mid ride tunnel, currently only a dip. In
the background the first tunnel can be seen. |

A
close up picture of the first tunnel, the first section of which has walls
and a floor, but, still it is covered in scaffolding. |
This
picture has been taken from inside of the first tunnel, scaffolding covers
the top due to the upper wall still to be poured. At the end of the tunnel
light is seen and the concrete slope which the ride will incline. |

Please
remember that the construction site is out of bounds to anyone who does
not have authorised access- It is a dangerous place. |
