The landscape of Universal Studios Hollywood is changing forever as track installation for the new Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift roller coaster kicks into overdrive.
We begin just outside the entrance to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, where the large station for the attraction rises behind construction tarps.
This appears to be either the beginning or the end of the right, with track entering into the station.
Construction juts up right next to the entrance to Springfield.
Moving on to the escalator to the Lower Lot, track for the new coaster is instantly visible – going under and over the escalators, with a large section off to the left-hand side on the hillside.
