Progress on TRON Coaster Canopy Continues
Our excitement over the TRON Coaster in Tomorrowland at Walt Disney World is starting to reach fever pitch. Not only are there reports today of the cars for the coaster being moved onsite but progress continues to be made on the incredible outdoor canopy!
We’re back at the Magic Kingdom this morning and popped over to Tomorrowland to see how things are coming along.
This is such an exciting point of the construction process as you can actually see the ride inch ever closer to completion.
Just over the past week, we’ve seen huge segments of the coaster canopy being covered.
Teams have been hard at work laying the almost translucent white panels onto these wave-like roof.
Once completed, the canopy will be gorgeously illuminated giving riders the feeling that they are soaring through cyberspace just like in the TRON films.
The soaring height of these canopied rooftops means that the TRON coaster will inevitably be another important Disney landmark!
We will continue to follow this project closely in the days and weeks ahead.
My favorite thing about the image above are the traffic cones being used on the track itself!
It seems like just yesterday that only a few of these white panels could be seen on the structure and now look at it!
As of going to print, Disney has yet to give an opening date for the coaster.
However, the more we see this ride inch ever closer to completion the more optimistic we are that we could see it this year! (Fingers crossed.)
We suspect that in just a few weeks time we’ll see the outdoor rooftops completely covered!
We hope you’ll join us every step of the way!
Once the work is completed, there will still be lots of landscaping that needs to be carried out in this area.
The tracks of the Walt Disney World railroad (which has been on hiatus since TRON construction started) will also need to be re-laid.
So there is still quite a lot of work to be done but what a stunning ride it will be once completed.
We’ll be coming to you LIVE! from the theme parks each and ever week so check back!
