Concept art seems to represent this structure as a large stained glass dome. The project 900 structures, which could be the two rumored rides for this area, include one in the very center of the park. Possible attraction at center of theme park Project 900, (shown in red) may refer to the two attractions rumored for the central area of Epic Universe, while 901, (shown in blue) is designated for all of the other structures, including dining, shopping, and restrooms. Inside of the park, the permits refer to most of the hub as P901, except for two structures, which are designated as P900. As with any park, permits show ticket booths, offices, and entry turnstiles. The colorful map image above shows the three project numbers associated with the central areas for the park, starting with P920, in green, as the park entrance area. The hub will be filled with restaurants, shopping, and a couple attractions of its own-as well as a large fountain that could be used for shows. Guests will pass through this central area when traveling from one land to another, as each land within the park only features one entrance/exit. The new park is uniquely designed to feature a massive central hub. However, this is only an estimate for the completion of the roadwork, and it could be ready sooner. This may give us some indication on when the park should be expected to open to the public.
Roadwork, most notably the Kirkman Road extension, is planned to be completed by Spring 2025 at the latest. Universal and the county have developed plans for traffic light placements, landscape and hardscape information, signage, and other beautification details related to Universal Way, Kirkman Road, and their connections to the existing Universal Blvd and Destination Parkway. In the future, additional offerings could be constructed by the company across the street from Epic Universe, as they own the land on either side of Universal Way and turn-offs/intersections leading to nothing are part of the current plans for the road’s development. A 2019 study estimated that this new road could see between 28,000 to 34,000 vehicles per day. Universal Way will the main way for guests to get to Epic Universe’s flat parking lot, as well as guest drop off and pick up areas. Official map showing location of new park with completed Kirkman Rd connectionĪ new road, named Universal Way, will be constructed to connect Kirkman Road to Destination Parkway. In addition to the new park, several hotels with a rumored total of 2000 rooms are also expected to be constructed with this project, including one located at the back of the theme park itself. Located a couple miles south of the current Universal Orlando Resort, Epic Universe will be an entirely new theme park, built on 750 acres of land the company owns near the Orange County Convention Center. Universal confirmed in March that Epic Universe is getting back on track, after pausing major construction on the project for nine months due to the pandemic. Check out the video version of this story below for additional visuals. Plus, we’ll talk about what the future may hold for this resort expansion, and how it may change as things move forward. Using publicly available permits, notes, and site plans-as well as some of the latest rumors-let’s try to piece together what Epic Universe could look like if the current plans stay exactly as they are. With major construction ramping back up for Universal’s Epic Universe in Orlando, now seemed like a good time to check in on the current plans for this ambitious new theme park.
