Fuji-Q Highland to Close Do-Dodonpa, Fastest Roller Coaster in the Industry; Enjoyed by 9.3 Million People Since Opening in 2001

japannews.yomiuri.co.jp

Fuji-Q Highland, a theme park in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, announced on Wednesday that it will cease operations of its Do-Dodonpa roller coaster.

Very sad news. After multiple injuries previously Do-Dodonpa had been closed for investigations and modifications but Fuji-Q has now announced that it will be too difficult to remedy the ride and therefore will cease operations.
