Raglan road bus drop off?

[Evansvillegirl26]

Is the other bus stop still closed? Someone told me when I was there in January that you had to be dropped off at the stop by the Christmas store and walk. Trying to find the best way to get to raglan road with a 2 yr old and stroller.

Right now they are only using the Marketplace bus stop. Any chance that you are staying at SSR, POR, POFQ, or OKW? They have boat access to DTD that will bring you closer to Raglan Road

Ok thanks!!! We are staying at boardwalk. It's not a huge deal just trying to get my game plan together!!

The boat is very close to the marketplace bus stop and will take you to the Westside

I will need an ECV and will be taking the bus from BC. Are you saying to take the bus to the Marketplace bus stop and then the boat to the Westside?
TIA

We always walk but we'll be glad when the second bus stop reopens.

If your business at hand is closer to the Westside, than yes. The boat ramp is very close to the Marketplace bus stop. It gets you all the way to the other side of DTD without the congested crowds.

My "Business at Hand" is a dinner ADR at Raglan Road/ Is this what you recommend? How long should we plan for the full trip?
Thanks

If you are walking with a 2 year old in a stroller I would give myself 15 minutes if you are not stopping anywhere to walk from the bus stop (I always give myself an hour to take a bus to DTD so this is in addition to that). If you want to take the ferry and then walk to the restaurant I would say it will be about 15 minutes plus however long you have to wait for a ferry to arrive- you would get off at the 2nd fairy stop after you get on to go to Raglan Road. I would give myself at least 30 minutes for this transportation option.

If your 2 year old is walking than take into account the amount of time it takes for him/her to walk as opposed to an adult pushing a stroller as that is the time I gave you.

Thanks for the reply. I am sorry I am not clear in my request for info.
We are 3 adults. 2 Able bodied folks and me on my ECV. We will take the bus from BC - so I read your advice for an hour for that.
My worry is the best option for getting from the Marketplace bus stop to Raglan Road. I am trying to figure out if simply "walking" there is better than the boat option. Thanks for the help

I would say that walking will be easier with an ECV than taking the boats- there is limited space on the boats for ECV so you may have to wait for a 2nd one- same a you sometimes have to do with a bus. Walking from the bus stop to Raglan Road is really not very hard although it is probably about a .75- 1 mile walk which is why it takes about 15 minutes- an ECV should take about the same amount of time as any other adult- although sometimes dodging people can be problematic- if it is really bad though you can head to toward the parking lot once you get to the World of Disney and take the outer sidewalks that rarely have people on them. I would give myself 20 minutes with an EVC just because of people in the walkway.

Thank You for your patience and reply. We will use your advice as we move forward

Right now there is only the boat only goes to marketplace and Westside. There is no stop between them.

Going to Raglan road from the bus stop is easily achieved by staying to the right when you get off the bus. There is a bridge right near Rainforest and Goofy's that is much lest congested and much easier to navigate then that cluster that happens near Giradelli and the Lego Store
