Construction Update - Impact On These Disney Resorts
If you travel down Floridian Way, you will notice a lot of construction. Check out the latest that is happening near Disney's Polynesian Resort.
Disney's Polynesian Resort
Disney's Polynesian Resort is located near the Magic Kingdom. The construction at the Polynesian began in May and is expected to last through 2026.
The work being done will include the reconfiguration of the front entrance roadway and bus area.
Guests can see them clearing a section of the parking lot, which will eventually become roadways. The new entrance will come off of Floridian Way, versus its current entrance on Seven Seas Drive. The Seven Seas Drive entrance will become the bus entrance.
Floridian Way Construction
Out on Floridian Way, there is even more construction. This is part of a multi-year project that is aimed at improving traffic flow with rerouting and widening.
New roundabouts will be placed near Disney's Grand Floridian and Polynesian Resorts.
If heading towards the Grand Floridian Resort, there are construction vehicles along the most of the left side of the road. Be aware at the intersection of Seven Seas Drive and Floridian Way, some directions do not have a stop sign!
What Does This Mean For You?
If you are traveling to or from the resorts on Floridian Way (Polynesian or Grand Floridian) be sure to budget extra time to get to your destination. Also, be sure to be aware of traffic signs as traffic patterns could change or road crews out working bringing traffic down to one lane.
Be sure to allow for extra to get to or from your destination if traveling Floridian Way.

As you can see by the extent of the work being done some views at these resorts could be impacted by this work. Fortunately, all resort dining, pools, and amenities will remain available for Guests enjoyment.
