BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted May 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Those Chip/Dale and Boone/Crockett buses were not fun. But, they've been gone for more than 10 years. TCD It looks like many of these sites have ancient info on them, which is a wee bit surprising considering they're pretty high profile sites - or at least they pop up high in search rankings. Just goes to show you... don't believe everything you read on the interwebz. In fact, I'd say believe maybe 30%. Unless you're reading here, then believe every word. Unless Lou is posting. Or Dave.

Lou... 3,118 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Well we all know we should never believe the bus drivers, so... bus drivers posting on the internet? When you're right, you're right, Mo. Not surprisingly, this is the source... I'm shocked beyond belief. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Ok Frank, if that's you're real name, and not your name under the witness protection program, listen up. All kidding aside, if it's anything, and I mean anything, to do with WDW or camping, come here first.And even though we joke around a lot, when it comes to giving out correct information, we don't joke around.

A lot. Really... it's kind of ridiculous. Fixed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I'll have you know that it is a documented fact that I'm correct .98% if the time. .98%, sounds high. The decimal point is in the wrong place? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 .98%, sounds high. The decimal point is in the wrong place?Nope it's correct. I hope to one day reach your accuracy level of 1.0%. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Disneyfrank 4 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Now Lou if I believed everything on the net I would have not questioned it nor engage in conversation with you.....solely based on what's on the web of course. As for what articles I read..... you pretty much found them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lou... 3,118 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 More on bus transportation during the construction at DTD. Numerous road improvements will be made in order to alleviate traffic, including widening Buena Vista Drive to ten lanes, with two lanes dedicated to buses and the addition of a slip ramp onto Buena Vista Drive from the existing exit to Epcot Center Drive. During this construction, they are making adjustments to the area’s bus operations to reduce the traffic impacts along Buena Vista Drive. Beginning June 10, service to and from Typhoon Lagoon will be as follows.Prior to 2 p.m. - Guests will continue traveling to and from Typhoon Lagoon via the Downtown Disney/Typhoon Lagoon bus.After 2 p.m. - Guests traveling to and from Typhoon Lagoon will take a bus or monorail to Epcot and will transfer to another bus to get to their destination. In addition, Downtown Disney bus operations will be consolidated to an expanded Marketplace location beginning June 11. With the installation of a new traffic signal at Buena Vista Drive and the Marketplace bus loop, buses from Downtown Disney will be redirected to Disney Vacation Club Way.

There are a couple of really big deals in that post. Does this mean there will be no direct buses to or from Typhoon Lagoon after 2 pm beginning next week? So, if you're at Typhone Lagone and want to get back to the Fort in the late afternoon, you have to go to Epcot, and then look for a Fort Wilderness bus? That's a full day of excrement right there. And at Downtown Disney (not Disney Springs yet, right?) there's now just one bus stop- at the Marketplace? So, if you're going to House of Blues, for example, you're in for a long walk. It looks like I won't be visiting either Typhone Lagone or Disney Springs for a while. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
