The Magic Kingdom looks to be preparing to add a second Main Street U.S.A. bypass on the western side of the park.
Work began on this a couple of years ago with the removal of the fountain that stood between Casey's Corner and the First Aid Center. Prior to the COVID-19 shutdown, the area was covered in constructions scrims. The work was completed in mid-November leaving a wide clear path to move guests backstage and into Town Square at the front of the park. A similar bypass has been in operation for several years on the eastern side of the park, where some basic theming and landscaping was installed to hide some of the views backstage. It isn't clear yet if something similar will be done on the western side.
