Disney springs buses

[Disney mac]

who was on drugs designing that pickup? I asked that question to the drivers and they told me no one consulted them and they agree it should have been perpindicular to the monstrosity they created.

It's a stupid design.

What's wrong with it?

And why would engineers and a design team consult any bus drivers for input? Lol

The Disney Springs bus station as designed is oriented best for the shape of the space provided. If it were perpendicular to that then the space needed for the turning loops would make the platforms too short for the number of spaces (berths) needed.

I would have considered putting the guest entrance on the east end and the bus exit on the west end but I suppose that would make it more difficult for the buses to get in and out given the existing locations of the traffic lights out on Buena Vista Drive.

The current layout allows arriving buses to drop off Guests along the curb right by the DS entrance, before proceeding to the load zone. Were it to be reversed, incoming buses would have their doors facing out to the street.
