22 Disneyland is getting a brand new transportation hub and parking structure in 2018 to help support the upcoming Star Wars expansion. The new parking structure will have a new transportation hub on Manchester Avenue to replace the current one. The new hub will support bus, hotel shuttle and taxi drop off and pickups. A pedestrian bridge over Harbor Boulevard will connect the new structure and the parks. The new seven-story parking structure will have 6,800 parking spaces.
Sadly as a part of this project, it has been confirmed that The Carousel Inn and Suites that Disney bought in October 2015 will be torn down to make way for the pedestrian walkway. It was also confirmed that there will be a new security location prior to the bridge. This parking garage, transportation hub, and pedestrian bridge over Harbor Boulevard will make it easier and safer for park goers to get to the parks.
While construction is slated to start in 2017, guests of the park can already see where the new building will be situated as Disney has already started some preparation of the space next to the Carousel Inn.
