Transportation and the new hours at DTD

[aengus]

Hello Everyone

I was curious, now that DTD has posted new standard hours (as posted on wdwinfo.com HERE )

I became curious as to what that really meant. Does anyone know are those now the hours we can expect bus transportation to and from the resorts?

Thank you in advance

I would doubt it as it says those are the times for common areas,
This includes all Downtown Disney promenades, walkways, rest rooms and green spaces.

Won't mean stores or restaurants are open those hours so I think transportation will still be geared to operating hours of stores/restaurants.

Thank you for your response drew.

Is there anywhere I can find what the transportation hours to DTD or Westside are?

I know they have them at the resorts, but not sure about on a web site. I believe the buses starteds running there at 10 last year from the YC/BC. Last one back from West Side I think was around 1AM.

I think the buses from the resorts start around 8:30.

Buses from DTD back to the resorts run until around midnight from the Marketplace, and until 2 a.m. from PI. (The PI stop serves West Side, too.)

Thank you so much Drew and Joel!

Would it be safe to assume I could still get a bus to PI at 1 am?

I think service from the resorts to DTD is sporadic after midnight. I've been told that, at some point, buses are only dispatched from PI when there are guests to take to the resorts, but I don't know exactly what time regular service ends.

Thanks Joel.

Hmmm I wonder what time you can get a bus going out to DTD/PI/Westside. I was going to spend a night at a hotel other than my own to see a band, a taxi wouldn't be the end of the world but thought I could save myself 10 bucks by running toward DTD.
