if they started doing massive Ride Legos I would be all for it. Like a Haunted Mansion Lego set that looks like the outside of Mansion, or even a Splash Mountain one.
The whole epcot bypass is a little curious. I can see it being needed for construction vehicles staging to go into the area, and allowing the buses to pass while waiting. I suppose minnie vans as well could stage there.
However on the construction side, what do they really have going on that would need that many vehicles staged at that location? All the major earth moving is done for the front of the park projects.
My guess is that they will stage buses there during park close. There was almost always a backup at this time and many times, we would either hold at the toll plaza or in the back of the charter lot. It would make more sense to stage on this new road

Makes since although to be honest I have never closed Epcot and not been staying at resort that was accessible from the international gateway so I didnt know that close there was such a problem for busses and staging. Maybe this is all part of the grand plan to redesign epcot and this is just part of the first wave. We know the traffic management and road upgrades they have been doing in relation to MK, I wonder how much growth Disney really is forecasting over the next decade
Many of you are probably aware that I am big into the Credit Card rewards game - We have a big thread all about that. This is "OLD NEWS" but Chase removed the option to use their Ultimate Rewards travel points for Disney resorts when they switched to Expedia from Connexions. This was a major blow to those of us with thousands of Chase points.
If our News Thread group here would be so kind, we're trying to raise awareness through a little twitter campaign to see if we can get that option back:
I know a lot of us have twitter - let's start tweeting Chase and Disney and try to see if we can drum up some attention...
To me Disney World is my Ultimate Travel goal - I wish I was told you were going to remove all 25 of the Walt Disney World resort hotels before I earned all of these points. #FreeDisneyResorts#ChaseHatesDisney#FixUltimateRewardsPlease I just want to take my girls to Disney!
If you'd be so kind - let's re-tweet this, do your own new tweets, use some of the hashtags, create your own. It may not achieve anything, but I'm trying to at least make an effort to let Chase and Disney know that something is missing here!!
@rteetz - if you don't want this here just let me know and I'll edit this ASAP...
