New ride/roller coaster coming to Särkänniemi amusement park? 2025? 2026?

A new sign has appeared near Särkänniemi's Trombi -Zamperla volare after it was removed from the parks map and put up for sale. The park later commented saying trombi will not be coming back. The sign says:

Roughly translated to english: "Something new is being built here. Trombi has been closed to make space for new. We are building Särkänniemi's biggest ride investment of this decade on this site. More info coming soon"

If you know Särkänniemi, you know the space is reall small, but fingers crossed for something decent.
 
I totally see an S&S Free Spin for this park. If they relocate the Disk-O-Coaster, they could put it on the small piece of land in the lake and have a ride with the lake on both sides. Sorry for being so random but this thought has been stuck in my head since forever.
 
So, what can be a rollercoaster under 30m tall that will fit in this small space?

My ideas:
1.Vekoma family boomerang (could be designed to fit around already existing buildings)
2.Gerstaluer bobsled 610 (small and is classic ish like the ceo sometimes said)
3.maybe some spinning coaster (30m seems quite tall)

Or maybe they are putting the halfpipe back… It is no where to be found on sale and it is just 30m
 
Oh wow, that was quick! Very much looking forward to the eventual replacement; when I was standing beside it last month, I was already envisioning some kind of Hot Racer or Raptor there 🤣 that's some good real estate right beside the water there!
 
I must have been at the park at the same time as the poster there - my photo from the observation tower has the digger in exactly the same position.

Can confirm the drfit thing was operating, but I was quite hungover and the thought of it made me feel sick, so I skipped it. :D

They're also building a fancy new bridge across the water on the car park side of the site. Should give quite a nice view of the park when it's finished, but at the moment it's just halving the car parking and removing the famous view of Tornado through the tunnel.
 
Current look at the site;

I am not really sure 100%, but they wanted to construct a bridge between the park and the other side of the water. It can be on this location or from the parkinglot near the entrance.

The new bridge is connecting to the flat plot of asphalt next to Tornado on the far right of the original image:

I didn’t photograph the bridge itself but the entrance is at the bottom of this photo I took:
