Hex - If and when will it return

[AstroDan]

Having indeed ridden all Mad Houses around the world ( ) I can confirm that the only two Vekoma's that are the smaller versions are those at Drayton Manor Park and Belantis.

I have not seen such a severe parking issue on any of them apart from Hex.

Though recently Villa Volta and Defi de Cesar have both been having issues, though not parking related, could be a problem seen through most of them...

I doubt the parking issue will ever be fixed, even Vekoma don't have a clue how to solve it!

It sounds quite self-explanatory (I'm guessing it's to do with the lining up of the room with with entrance/exit?) but what actually is the parking problem and do they know what caused it? When I last went on it in early 2015 it was was working ok.

 

[AstroDan]

The parking issue isn't really a major issue. Certainly not from a guest experience point of view.

The 2017 line up has now been confirmed. Toadstoole gets the chop!

Well, at least Hex will be returning. I've missed it.

For the sake of those who are using mobile devices that refuse to load towers website, could someone summarise the line-up please

 

[PuddoBearBoy]

Essentially, Hex & Driving School re open
Sub terra, Ice age, Charlie, Twirling Toadstool remain closed.

 

[Leah]

Ice age and toadstool gone now? That is literally the whole of ccl closed. Hopefully this means they're planning something big for that area, but maybe that's the optimistic way of saying budget cuts...

Sad to see toadstool go, wasn't a bad way of passing a few minutes while waiting for people to order in burger kitchen (by the way, what's the chances of that being open considering the whole area is now dead). Can't say I'm botheredpersonally about the others, but I worry more for the family audience now they have even less.

 

[PuddoBearBoy]

Also, right this second, Sub Terra is not noted like other closures as for 'TLC' but is 'Currently Unavailable'.

 

[Jonathan]

I wonder how long it'll take Towers to just admit that Sub-Terra was a failure and remove it from the ride line-up completely. I'm betting on that happening on the twelfth of never.

As Hex is now confirmed as returning, and we're heading into TLC/other rides discussion in here, this topic is going to be locked. Please use the General Discussion forum for continued discussion. Thanks .
