PHOTOS: New Directional Signage Installed; Temporary Second Park Exit Now Open at EPCOT

Changes throughout EPCOT’s entrance continue today with even more new additions to the guest arrival experience. New transportation signage has gone up near the park entrance, as well as a new secondary exit to the park, right along the Joffrey’s kiosk.

First up, we see the new directional signage installed by the tram loop drop-off. The signs feature the new EPCOT font, as well as icons for the park entrance, restrooms, and nearby transportation options.

The dark grey and blue color scheme matches that of the rest of the park’s new signage.

Over by the east side of the park, this new, albeit temporary second exit has also opened alongside construction walls for the new security screening area.

The exit is lined with planters along the scrim-covered fences. You can access it just off the Joffrey’s Coffee kiosk… perfect if you need a cup of joe before heading back home or to your resort.

Along the exit, you can see where security perimeter fencing has been installed to keep those exiting (or guests arriving who haven’t gone through security screening) separate from guests who have.

With an additional exit now open, it’ll make things easier for guests parked on this side of the lot, not to mention alleviate congestion at the other main exit. Once the new security screening area opens, this area will be fully completed… for now.
