Last month, Disney announced they reached an agreement with Virgin Trains USA Brightline High-Speed Railway to bring a brand new station to Disney Springs. Once complete, you'll be able to use the train service to travel to Miami or Orlando International Airport (MCO). Orlando Business Journal is reporting today the target completion date for this project is in the second half of 2023.

The Miami-based intercity rail provider in its November monthly ridership report said it wants to start revenue service on the connection during the second half of 2023. The company announced in November a joint agreement with Disney that it would develop, build and operate a station at the Disney Springs shopping, dining and entertainment complex at the resort.

"The station at Disney Springs will provide a fast, convenient and enjoyable alternative to driving or flying for the millions of trips made by guests traveling between South Florida and Orlando to visit the Walt Disney World Resort each year," the company wrote. "As part of a future planned extension to Tampa, the station at Disney Springs could also serve the millions of annual visitors to Disney and Orlando originating from the Tampa area."
