Anyone know what that massive chunk of the hill they took out will be used for? I heard possibly the new tram tour area.

Also USH has gotten so much better over the last couple years with NintendoLand, SLOP and FnF Coaster being built, its actually not a bad park anymore imo

The rumor is there will be a new Tram Depo area but I don't know if this is part of it. They are suppose to be moving the Tram so theme park expansion can happen in the lake/FF Supercharge area. Again just rumors and speculation.

Per multiple TMs it's just a retaining wall being rebuilt. In photos from late 2023 you can see they tried to add extra supports for the old one before biting the bullet and rebuilding the whole thing.
Very unlikely it becomes tram loading as it's a dead end with no space to turn trams around.

FWIW Pokemon is the prevailing rumor to replace Spider-Man in Osaka, so it could be a retheme of that system.

That's exactly what I was thinking... Pan TDS, Spiderman, Transformers...

Not what USH needs IMO. Give me a family coaster, drop tower, more traditional dark ride, indoor boat ride. Anything other than the above for USH. I wish WDI and Universal Creative would make the ride system the starting point as opposed to the IP. Choose the ride system the park needs then pick the appropriate IP/ Story to fit with it.
