The easiest way from the Downtown Disney area is....

Make a left on ApopkaVineland Road across from The Crossroads and then a right on Palm Parkway. That will turn into Turkey Lake Road and follow until you get to Universal. You don't have to go on I-4 at all.

We'll be taking that trip on the morning of June 4th. Do you think that's the best way to go taking into consideration the possible craziness of the WWoHP? Appreciate all the help!

It will certainly be better than I-4! This is not a route that most of the tourists who come here take...they stick with I-4 so go the back way. Your main concern is should be the time of day you're heading over and if it's a weekday or not. You'll get lots of local traffic during rush hour.

I'd avoid palm parkway altogether. You can take Apopka Vineland all the way up to Wallace, and take a right, then a left when it dead ends into Turkey Lake. You'll run into the back entrance of UO. And you don't have to deal with the craziness which is the Turkey Lake/Sand Lake rd. interchange.

And watch the light at Sand Lake and Turkey Lake.If I am not mistaken it has a redllight camera on it,and if you get too far over the line,on a red, youll have a ticket waiting on you when you get home.
