- A coaster in Canada Creek of similar scale to Nemesis Inferno
You may be thinking how is all this going to fit? Well in simple terms, parts of the lakes will be filled in to create new park extensions and islands. To compensate the lake areas lost, land will be transformed / flooded in remote locations that are not near the main park area.
Two new islands will be created in Manor Lake. Locations of land extensions are Loggers Leap lake, Colossus area, Treasure Island, Peninsula and around the dome.
Areas that will be flooded are Thorpe Farm South in 2007, Thorpe Farm North in 2006, North Meadow in 2005 and an extension of the existing flood area in 2004. These are all visible on the diagram to the right.

The most attention seems to be around the two large coasters that are planned for 2006 and 2008. The layouts on the plans are for impression only, and are subject to change. They just give an idea of the area to be used
With the new land available from the infill site near Colossus, the plan shows another coaster of the non looping variety. The complete layout is not clear, but what is visible is highlighted in yellow. It is not known what type of coaster it is, but a paragraph in the MTDP states that a wooden coaster's structure may be too dense and is deemed not suitable for Thorpe Park.
(Sorry Soph)

The planning statement also mentions the long term plans for the park in minor detail. This will be the development of the infill islands and extensions. They may include attractions such as a Kids area, Runaway Train, Haunted House, Bobsleigh ride and another coaster. These are all once again subject to change and are only initial ideas. One project that is not mentioned in the plans is the retheme of X:\ No Way Out. Part of the long term plan shows a LIM Coaster on it's spot.
Also, they are planning to build a hotel on the site, i think it would attract more people to the site - when/if they do.
Info from www.southparks.org I'll keep you updated always ;D
