Tron Coaster Construction Update

Here is a quick look at the Tron Coaster now that Construction has resumed.

Construction on Tron Lightcycle at Walt Disney World, Magic Kingdom is still continuing.

Construction on the upcoming new TRON Lightcycle / Run attraction at the Magic Kingdom has steadily continued since the park reopened. We raced to the queue of The Barnstormer to get a view of the latest construction updates. It seems like each time we visit, more and more is completed with this build.

Here is a look at all the current active construction projects at Walt Disney World as well inactive construction projects. This includes hotel towers, a new solar powered McDonalds, road projects, Cinderella Castle and Tron.

Tron Construction at Magic Kingdom begins to show signs of the canopy underway.

The enormous construction site stretches from Space Mountain all the way to Goofy's Barnstormer, so it's hard to miss. This is a coaster that will travel in and out of a large show building. It will also make a large circle outside the show building under a large open-air illuminated canopy. Today, we noticed some of the first structural signs of that canopy.

The large, rust-colored pillars will serve as supports for the large undulated roof of TRON Lightcycle Run while it's being constructed. Once finalized, we'll see these come back down to reveal a clear, futuristic facade.

The final track piece has been installed for the Tron Lightcycle Run roller coaster at Magic Kingdom! The final piece connected the exterior loop to the show building and marked a fully completed track less than 5 months after the first track piece was installed.
