Silver Dollar City - Project 2026 Construction

PROJECT 2026


The roof on the expanded tunnel looks to be nearing completion

The cement slab appears to be done and now they are moving earth and gravel in to fill in around it

The wooden boards sticking up mark where the end of the old tunnel started

They also have a board here at the end of the new section.  It appears that the tunnel will not go all the way to the bridge that goes over the cannal.

It will be interesting to see if the tunnel will get covered back up with earth

There is a digger over by the zigzag walkway near the Falls.
We are curious what is going to become of the Falls since they dug out behind it

Some construction fencing is really all that's happened over here since last time

Not much going on over on the Wildfire side of the construction area

They have a fence around this unused flume section from Jim Owens float trip.

Apparently they are working at night on this area as there are heavy duty lighting rigs out there.

The cleared area beyond Wildfire and PowderKeg has grown some since our last visit but the rainy weather has probably slowed down progress
