Starting Wednesday, digital ticketing will be used at two new entry/exit points — one inside Kiddie Park and the other near the Zoo Parking Garage.
The zoo is constructing a new entrance, replacing the 1950′s era entrance with one that has improved infrastructure and ADA accommodations, according to a news release.
“The new entrance will reflect the sights, sounds, and culture of San Antonio and will include art by local artists. San Antonio Zoo guests and visitors to Brackenridge Park will also experience improved pedestrian safety and traffic safety. Those improvements include a designated entrance for school groups, improved access for zoo visitors away from the street, and more accessibility for guests with disabilities,” zoo officials said in a press release.
The entry plaza will include an overhead lemur pathway system and a renovated and repurposed historic monkey house. The new entryway building will house a café, stroller rental/sundry counter, and restrooms, including a universal changing room.“After years of planning, and thanks to the voters of the 2017 bond and zoo donors, the zoo’s new, more functional, safe, accessible and inspirational entrance has begun to come to fruition,” said Tim Morrow, President & CEO of San Antonio Zoo. “Replacing the 1950′s era entrance is exciting new adventure and chapter in our history.
