I don't have a problem with having CBeebies rides on there, and I would happily see all rides and attractions on there, at the end of the day that is what ride times is for! There is nothing worse than a busy day looking on ride times and everything is red, yet Hex, Charlie, Duel, etc could have 5 min queue.
Hopefully new queue boards will come soon, in a similar style to Thorpe (except the ones at Thorpe move to quick to read the whole board). I imagine they have waited until CBeebies Land opens before they do anything major.

Scott said:I think the issue with tabs and various other things is that the site is meant to be very easy to load even if you're out of wifi range and have bad signal.
It's possible to do tabs without requiring good Internet, with only a few lines of Javascript. Could even make it degrade nicely back to where it is now, for browsers where the Javascript fails to download/work.

At the moment it's way too messy, what I would like is all rides with tabs for different areas and if you're on park come up with the area you're closest to. It would mean you wouldn't be on your way to dark forest and then rush to a different area because there is a really low queue time because then it would be a mad dash like it already is. I've seen people barging into families on the way to x sector because they saw on the queue time board near hex the smiler is on a 5 minute queue only to get there to,saw a crowd of people pushing to get in front. It can really ruin the atmosphere and some people get put off by it. So I would like to see an improved ridetimes and improved queue boards because the amount of times the queue is wrong is ridiculous.

I hope that they are similar in style to the one trialled last year - mixing queue times with adverts for things across park.
Hope they group rides like on ride times and also use the green/orange/red indicators. No excuse for not having every ride on park on the board either!

I would imagine that the new system will use the same data as ridetimes does so it will probably include all of those rides along with the green, amber and red indicators. Hopefuully they can incorporate all rides in the park though as even having rides that rarely get a queue having their queue times displayed would be useful for spreading guests out across attractions.

Work continues on the new queue time boards. The hole at the bottom of Towers Street has now been filled in and some wires are just left for the sign to be attached. And new holes are currently being dug where the current board is in Mutiny Bay and next to the towers. Also the new board in Forbidden Valley will be located near to Sub-Terra and the Edge arcade. I also spotted workers measuring up just outside the fried chicken co in X-Sector.
The box office has also had its queue time screens updated to a new style and it now includes loads of rides including Hex, Duel and Charlie. Apparently the new queue time boards will look a similar style. And its great to see they are finally adding more rides to the boards.
