Liseberg launches “Projekt Helix”

Andreas Veilstrup Andersen, president and CEO of Liseberg, launches a new roller coaster for 2014 - longer and faster than any other coaster in the park. Projekt Helix – that’s the name of the new one – will be the park's biggest investment ever. The track is almost 1.4 km (4500 feet) long and will be the first multi-launch coaster in Europe. “Projekt Helix, which will be manufactured by the German company Mack Rides, will also be the most technologically advanced coaster in the park”, says Andreas Andersen. The construction work will start as soon as the park closes this fall and continue over next year. Projekt Helix will premiere in spring 2014.
