I quite like the archway. But it's obvious that it is very much a work in progress. And I'm sure once finished it will look a lot better. (Also bear in mind my photos there aren't the best and it looks nicer in real life).
With regards to the actual construction site itself. Universal Rocks are hard at work on the front of this building (as seen in this photo from back in October).
Scaffolding is up around it and the front of the building is covered with a base layer of concrete for the detailed themed facade to created on top of. The supports for the inversion and the track that passes through it have been wrapped in blue tarpaulins to protect them. There has been some work on the side of the building facing out into the main area and it looks to me as if there could be a clock face (or a fake circular window) on that side inbetween the the two towers (which cover the inversion's two supports).
In the pit itself the earth ramp that was there for construction vehicles access has been completely cleared away, now opening up the entire site for them to build on. The site is truly now a pit. Across the centre of the site they have built various foundations and the starts of walls are visable (for what will be buildings and tunnels presumably).
There are only a few patches of ground and piles of rubble left which haven't been built on yet.
I saw a few completed footers, ready for supports. And there were quite a few anchor baskets sitting around - not sure if they were simply being stored there, or they are awaiting use within the next few days to create more footers.
Considering they are well on their way to completing the area's foundations, soon the only way will be up. It can't be long until we see more vertical construction.
I imagine, as with Klugheim in 2015, as we now come into the spring and summer months construction will start progressing at a far more rapid pace.
Will be interesting to see when the park start their teasers and marketing for Rookburgh.
Taron was announced near the end of April, one month into the 2015 season. Two weeks later they revealed a few more statistics. Two weeks after that they opened up the viewing flaps/windows into the construction site. Then in August they started their regular construction updates, behind the scenes looks and eventually testing footage on the park blog and YouTube channel, which continued right up until it opened in June 2016. Raik the area's secret secondary attraction was announced December 2015 (I'm pretty certain there will be another attraction in Rookburgh for families).
It's going to be an interesting year watching this develop. I'm rather intrigued to see the coaster layout and the area's theming.
