WORK has begun on a brand new ride at Legoland, Windsor – but for now the park is remaining tight-lipped about what exactly guests can expect.<\/p>\n

In November 2022, proposals were approved for a "duelling family shuttle coaster" and it appears work has finally begun on the project, which fans hope will open at the park next year.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Last month images emerged of construction starting on the ride, which will be built where the former Raft Racers ride was before it closed last year.<\/p>\n

The pictures, shared by Attraction Source, showed two work vehicles at the theme park, where the plans said the ride would be built.<\/p>\n

In a post on Facebook accompanying the snaps, they said that groundwork is "ongoing for the duelling family coasters."<\/p>\n

What we do know from the plans is that the ride will have two separate tracks, on which two coasters will "duel" against one another.<\/p>\n

Attraction Source also suggested how they expect the ride to run once it is finished.<\/p>\n

They predicted: "The two rollercoaster trains will ascend backwards up the lift hills at the rear of the station, before being released in unison to travel through the layout. <\/p>\n

"This will see them first travel at speed back through the station, underneath the operator's cabin, and further down the hill towards Duplo Valley. <\/p>\n

"After completing a three-quarter helix, the trains will then find themselves heading towards each other, over shallow hills, before then completing two swooping turns, which will provide another duelling moment."<\/p>\n

Other theme park fans are getting excited about the ride, with some saying it could end up being a similar ride to the duelling coaster at Wildlands Adventure Zoo in Emmen, Netherlands.<\/p>\n

Theme Park Freaks have predicted that it could end up being the fastest ride at Legoland.<\/p>\n

They said: "The dueling Family Boomerang Coaster appears to be a copy of Tweestryd in Wildlands Adventure Zoo Emmen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

"This is 20 meters high while reaching a speed of 60km\/h (37mph).\u00a0<\/p>\n

"If the same roller coaster is actually built in Legoland Windsor, these will be the fastest roller coasters in the park."<\/p>\n

Currently, the park's fastest ride is The Dragon, which has a top speed or around 50 km\/h (31mph).<\/p>\n

Others have compared it to other rollercoasters and aren't expecting quite as much of thrill from the ride.<\/p>\n

No official announcement about the ride has come from the park, which fans expect to open sometime next year.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson from Legoland told Sun Online Travel that they didn't have any further information to reveal at this stage.<\/p>\n
