Disney's Animal Kingdom Cast Member Parking Lot To Close for Refurbishment Starting Sept. 19

From September 19-30, Cast Members working at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park will be unable to park in the cast lot due to refurbishment, which will most likely involve the resurfacing of the lot. As a result of this temporary closure, working Cast Members will be directed to park in the "Unicorn" lot or in the front part of the "Dinosaur" lot.

A Cast shuttle will be available in the temporary parking lot to take them to the backstage entrance.

As always, Cast Members and Guests navigating the parking lots are encouraged to follow all posted signs, obey the speed limits, and keep an eye out for pedestrians (especially around backstage roadways). Be extra cautious when driving near construction sites where there could be machinery, workers or reduced speed limits.

Here's a map showing the impacts mentioned above, including the section of the parking lot that will be closed:
