Epcot Center is now plain old Epcot. Disney/MGM Studios is now Hollywood Studios. (No "Disney's" precedes it)

It's how you get to ALL Disney parks, DAK included, via World Drive. So why DAK wasn't added to a sign that already had three parks listed, I do not understand. Unless they maybe expect people in the future to access DAK from the west side of property, from 429 via Western Way?

I noticed that sign was replaced during the western beltway construction using Epcot Center and it was recently updated not long ago to the same description you gave us.
