Guests wanting to plan out their visit to Toy Story Land can now do so through the My Disney Experience App or the Walt Disney World website through the updated Digital Disney's Hollywood Studios Map:
Of note, it appears that Pixar Place will be staying for the time being.

So will the entrance to TSM stay on the Pixar Place side of the building or will it still be moved to the Toy Story Land side???
Coming up... ???

The entrance to TSM has been moved into Toy Story Land
Hmm...looks like a log jam to me with only one way in and out. That's on top of the already congested "Pixar Alley" where guests enter TSM. I doubt that Walt would be pleased!

Zippy1, do you happen to know what that long, winding path below the Toy Story Mania building is?
At first I thought it might be a back-path like they did between Pandora and Africa at Animal Kingdom, but it looks like it terminates into or at the building rather than connecting to Pixar Place .....

Could that be a new exit from TSM?
I was looking at that myself. It could also be a temporary pathway until Star Wars: Galaxy Edge opens up. It looks like a larger path will open up below Alien Swirling Saucers to take traffic to/from SW:GE once it opens.

My arm chair imagineering is guessing it's just a sidewalk connecting what I suspect are emergency exit doors in the loading platform area, it would allow evacuation crowds to get to the land and away from Star Wars construction.
Although it could possibly be a way to take wheel chairs into or out of the loading platform. I'm not sure how wheelchairs got down to the platform previously.

My guesses were new Toy Story Mania exit or Character Greeting Trail.
The later based on what look like two shelters along the path that could hold small Meet & Greets.
If that is the exit, I think some Imagineer was trying to tie or break the record for longest Theme Park Exit (currently held by Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye).

I would need to ask my DD as she is the one who has already been there. She checked out every nook and cranny when she was there last week
Yep, that's the new Toy Story Mania exit ...
Now we just need someone to count off steps to see if Toy Story Mania toppled Indiana Jones for world's longest exit

There used to be a door to the right of the staircase, that the CM would open to let wheel chairs in. I can not remember what the door was labeled, but unless you had seen it opened you probably thought it was part of the theming or an CM entrance.
