Exterior repainting has begun at The Little Mermaid - Ariel's Undersea Adventure in Disney California Adventure. CrowdLevels live data listed the ride as operating with a 10-minute posted wait at 5:24 p.m. PDT on August 12.

WDW News Today documented the project Saturday, with construction walls along the entrance side of the building and scaffolding covered by black scrims.

The walls extend from the entrance along the building's right side. Scaffolding also arches around a backstage doorway so cast members can continue using it.
