 Review of Big Wheel @ Playland Amusement Park

I like Ferris wheel they are a great way to take in the sites of the park. The line moves reasonably quickly but the ride time is a bit short. Good view and a nice family ride. I am hoping that the park takes dose move this ride closer to the water like the master plan suggests.

That would be a treat if this were brought closer to the water and it definitely would make the ride better.

That is what I read in the master plan. They sugest moving it to provide better views from the ride that would likely increase ridership. the Ferris wheel spot woudl be Kiddie land area. The plan calls for a restructuring of the kiddie land to create a better flow and make the ride more accessible.

The master plan i read said by 2010. apparently the ride is do for a rehab and that woudl require them taking it down. so they woudl have every opportunity to move it.

Part of that plan is to Raise attendance to 1.2 million guests. which I hope they make but I think this ride removal plan will hurt that greatly.

People will still come to the park for sure. As long as there are other family attractions that will compensate for this being gone, Rye Playland will be fine.

No doubt, they have allot of Kiddie rides and Family attractions. They are in no way laking in that area. But when the plan was set forth this sort of loss wasnt figured in. also Think if the lines associated with such a drop in overall attendance with even a 1 million attendance.
