The scrapping of a massive theme park project near Dartford has left locals feeling frustrated and disappointed after years of anticipation
Residents were excited about the idea of a massive theme park with roller coasters, hotels, and restaurants. But now, they’re left with a site that feels like a “forgotten wasteland.” It’s a real bummer for the community.
The project was supposed to create thousands of jobs and bring in tourists. But with debts piling up and planning issues, it all fell apart. The company behind it, London Resort Company Holdings, has gone into liquidation, which is just a kick in the teeth for everyone who hoped for something great.
Local business owners are feeling the pinch too. One guy said it’s not even a relief that it’s over because the area is such a mess now. Another local mentioned that the site used to be beautiful, but now it’s just a dumping ground.
The whole thing started back in 2012, and it seemed promising at first. But after years of setbacks, including environmental concerns, it became clear that the dream was fading. Even the big names from Hollywood pulled out, which didn’t help matters.
Now, with the project officially dead, locals are left wondering what’s next. It’s a tough blow for Dartford, and many are hoping for a better future for the area.
