To secure planning permission ore than €1.5 million was spent on noise reduction methods.
This is made up of multiple factors that included completely redesigning the coasters after the initial planning stages.
Designers reoriented the tracks to direct noise back into the park and away from housing in the area.
Founder of Tayto Park, Raymond Coyle said, “Today is a very exciting day for Tayto Park and Co. Meath. This is the largest single investment in our history! We currently employ 420 people and not only will the new coasters add employment to the local economy, they are securing the future of the park’.
