Environmental Review
A Smart Planning Approach Designed to Enable Investment for Decades
DisneylandForward is a blueprint to guide development and growth into the coming decades. As Disney invests, key improvements will be required to address the resort’s growth and minimize impacts.
Designed to Minimize Potential Project Impacts
New Development
Locate majority of new development on existing surface parking lots.
Bicycle Travel
Promote bicycle travel through the installation of dedicated bike paths and bicycle amenities throughout the resort.
360-Degree Architecture
Enhance architectural design program to ensure all visible theme park attractions and buildings are designed with 360-degree architecture.
Pedestrian Bridges
Invest in pedestrian bridges to improve local traffic flow and pedestrian safety.
Setbacks and Landscape Buffers
Create setbacks and landscape buffers from adjacent neighbors.
Transit
Plan the eastern parking structure and multimodal transportation center to be built on Disney’s eastside surface parking lots to balance traffic flow and create a hub for Anaheim Resort-focused buses, hotel and parking shuttles, bicycle parking, rideshare drop-offs and future transit connectors.
Employ Latest Technologies and Measures to Reduce and/or Avoid Impacts
