The last update said they were planning on opening in the fall and that was a couple of months ago. I'd be happy with an announcement of an announcement at this point.

Does anyone know if this means there is no sidewalk on the main road to walk to MK via Grand Floridian on the main road? (We're staying at Shades of Green soon and planning on walking to MK.)

That walkway mentioned in the blog is not along the road, but between Poly and GF. I’m not sure if it will affect the path you mentioned!

ETA: Just found some information about the SOG walkway in general… sorry I was clueless there was a special path! HERE

Thanks, I use this path a lot .

My plan was to use this to Poly and then find the other to GF. I was wondering if there is a sidewalk along the main road? I know we walk along the sidewalk until we get to where we can enter the Poly grounds.

Thing is, I never thought to look to see if the sidewalk continues down the main road until you get to GF??? I'm hoping there is one!

Ok good! I felt bad I didn’t know more about it to help. There is no sidewalk out front of GF. That I do know

There's been 2 hours since the last drop of news... I don't like it.

Bummer, thanks! That's what I needed to know .
Shoot, this dings up our MK morning plans. Plus, I was soooo looking forward to that walk!

Now I gotta rethink this lol. Any chances that path opens up by the end of next week? (Can I please put in a request for a dance offering to the Disney Gods that it's a couple of days job at most?? )

Wasn't there another Q&A recently? Did anything interesting come out of that?

He did mention they were increasing capacity.... that was really it for anything notable, but it was their earnings call.

Physical distancing markers removed from Jungle Cruise queue


Quoting the article:

“Disney will drop its mask use requirement for Walt Disney World tomorrow on June 15, and looks set to be introducing more entertainment including fireworks in the coming weeks. We still await Disney's announcement on that, but the signs on the ground are that COVID-19 mitigation methods are rapidly coming to an end at Disney theme parks.”
