Critter Co‑Op Entrance Partially Blocked at Magic Kingdom as Frontierland Overhaul Advances

Temporary work inside the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure shop is constraining foot traffic during the park’s Frontierland rebuild.

Overview

  • Half‑height construction walls inside Critter Co‑Op are blocking one set of entrance doors, creating a bottleneck for shoppers, according to on‑site reports.
  • The shop remains open with reduced guest flow, and observers suggest the work may involve flooring or the fireplace area, though Disney has not detailed the scope.
  • Frontierland is being reshaped following the July 7 permanent closures of Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America, which has been drained with sections of the riverboat track removed.
  • The multi‑year expansion centers on a new Cars‑themed Piston Peak National Park and a planned Villains‑themed area, with four attractions in development and no opening dates announced.
  • Big Thunder Mountain Railroad has been closed for an extended refurbishment since January and is reported to reopen next year.
