Ruptured Sewage Line Causes Part Of Walt Disney World To Close

Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida is home to four theme parks -- Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Unfortunately, due to a possible ruptured sewage line, part of Magic Kingdom had to shut down to Guests.

Magic Kingdom is made up of six lands -- Main Street, U.S.A., Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Fantasyland, and Tomorrowland.

Yesterday, a majority of Frontierland, including a popular attraction called Country Bear Jamboree, had to close down to Guests due to a reported ruptured sewage line.

According to reports, Disney World Cast Members were standing and blocking the way into Frontierland from both entrances late yesterday afternoon. Though Disney World Guests could still access Big Thunder Mountain Railroad via the pathway at the back of Adventureland, other attractions such as Country Bear Jamboree, and shops including Frontier Trading Post, were closed.

Photos were taken showing a big vehicle, which some indicated as a pump truck, parked in front of Country Bear Jamboree, leading many to believe there was a leak of some sort.

Luckily, the land was only closed for part of the day as the land reopened to Guests yesterday evening.

Magic Kingdom first opened to Guests at Walt Disney World in October 1971. The theme park is made up of six lands -- Main Street, U.S.A., Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Fantasyland, and Tomorrowland -- each themed specifically to immerse Guests into the magic.

Guests can start their day walking down Main Street, U.S.A. where they will spot Cinderella Castle almost immediately. Take a left at the end of the street and enter Adventureland, home to classic attractions such as Pirates of the Caribbean and The Enchanted Tiki Room.

Continue walking through Adventureland and the next stop is Frontierland, home to Big Thunder Mountain, and the soon-to-be attraction, Tiana's Bayou Adventure, which is replacing Splash Mountain. Between Frontierland and Fantasyland, you will find the iconic Haunted Mansion, which is located inside Liberty Square.

Fantasyland is one of the largest lands in Magic Kingdom and hosts attractions such as "it's a small world", Peter Pan's Flight, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, and more.

End the day in Tomorrowland where Guests can ride the Tomorrowland Speedway, Space Mountain, the Carousel of Progress, or the newest attraction, TRON / Lightcycle Run. According to the Walt Disney World website, TRON Lightcycle / Run is described as:

Lean forward into the ultimate race of survival! Leave the real world behind and join Team Blue in an epic quest across the Grid—the dark, computerized world with no horizons from TRON. Here, there’s no limit to the excitement.

Climb aboard your very own Lightcycle and take off on a high-speed adventure, racing against the Grid’s most menacing Programs. Surge past your fierce opponents as you attempt to cross through 8 Energy Gates and secure your team’s victory—so you can survive to race another day.

If Guests want to ride the new TRON rollercoaster, they must use the Virtual Queue system Disney has implemented.
