Britain's Thorpe Park has completed track work on Hyperia, its new Mack Rides Hypercoaster for 2024.
Workers yesterday lifted the final track piece into place, completing the 3,266-foot track, which rises to a maximum height of 236 feet.
With a top speed of 80 mph, Hyperia will be the United Kingdom's tallest and fastest roller coaster when it opens this spring. Hyperia will have a 51-inch (1.3 meters) height requirement for riders, and the restraints will be lap bars, the park said.
