Photo update as of Tuesday, June 2.
The lighted intersection at the West Side Garage exit and Buena Visa Drive was open for left turns from Buena Visa into the garage as well as left turns out of the garage onto Buena Visa as of Sunday, May 31. The center section of Buena Visa Drive at the intersection has been completed to permit the lighted intersection to function as previously.
As reported previously, the level 2 & 3 exit ramp from West Side garage onto Buena Visa Drive westbound is open. The merge lane is rather short, until Buena Vista roadwork is complete. Here are a few photos thru the exit ramp.
The upper ramp will direct inbound traffic to the West Side garage from the I-4 exit. The lower ramp is the garage exit ramp onto westbound Buena Vista Drive.
A telephoto view of the West Side garage exit ramp onto Buena Vista Drive. The curved ramp on the right (compacted dirt inside) will be at the upper level when completed.
Inside the West Side garage exit ramp towards Buena Vista Drive westbound.
Final section of the garage exit onto Buena Vista Drive, before the merge. The merged lane becomes the right turn lane at the next intersection, which leads to the far west surface parking lot behind Cirque du Soleil. This photo is under the "overpass" of the I-4/West Side garage elevated intersection.
Additional photos. Here is the entrance ramp to the West Side garage at the 3rd level of the garage. In the distance is the elevated intersection from the I-4 exit road to the garage.
Finally, here is the entrance ramp to the West Side garage 3rd level, with the Buena Vista Drive overpass in the background (the red safety barricades can be seen just above the concrete of the ramp). In the foreground, on the upper level ramp, the available parking spaces signboard is already installed (see orange vertical stripe). Unfortunately, in this view, the construction crane in the background appears to be part of the signboard. The lower level is the exit ramp to Buena Vista Drive westbound.
