Construction of the pit begins
Sunday 2nd September 2012
What a difference a few weeks can make! The whole site looks different, a pit has been dug where the station will be. Towards the top of the site it looks like they will be starting to dig down soon. The first load of footers can also be seen at the side of the site. It would also appear that whilst digging the pit workers came across a pipe and had to dodge a temporary fix.

Work around the site continues with the old black hole sub station still in place. We suspect they need to dig down a little more to remove some cables before they can remove it? Only time shall tell.

Ground works on the site have continued over the past few days. The concreate floor the tent and ride used to sit on have been completely removed. The old black hole entrance feature is now the only thing that remains.

The diggers are on site and ground works have officially begun. Although there’s still a small section of the black hole left work must go on. After all, the ride is opening in less than a year and nothing major has been done yet.

Work continues around the SW7 site. Not much has happened since last week.
