The Disney Parks take the anthem of "Keep Moving Forward" quite literally when it comes to closures in the Parks. At Magic Kingdom, one of the biggest projects underway is located in Frontierland.

Due to the progress on the new Cars-themed land at the former Rivers of America, construction walls now surround this space.

Also in Frontierland, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad remains closed for over year for a lengthy refurbishment. Magic Kingdom just debuted a new park map, and the warning "Temporarily Closed for Refurbishment" is now removed from Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Along with this change, several locations have been removed from the Magic Kingdom Park map. In Fantasyland, both Pete's Silly Sideshow and Big Top Souvenirs are now removed from the map.

Big Top Souvenirs remains open (for the time being), but both locations will close for a refurbishment. Due to this closure, check out full details for meeting Daisy, Minnie, Goofy, and Donald HERE.

Over in Adventureland, Tortuga Tavern has also been removed from the map. This space has served as a dining area and also as a souvenir shop. Now it is completely missing from the Magic Kingdom map.

There are also two notable changes. First at Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. This attraction is currently closed, but offers a new description: "Blast targets to score points and defeat Zurg in this interactive adventure." Previously, this was described as a "shooting gallery-inspired game."

Three Magic Kingdom locations are removed from the newest Park map.

For Adventureland, an update is added to the newest lounge, The Beak & Barrel. Guests are notified that Mobile Dining Reservation Check-in is available.
