TSM Rope Drop Strategy - what is the shortest path?

[lostatdisney]

My family will be doing rope drop at HS on Saturday, May 12 in hopes of getting on TSM. With all the construction going on, I wasn't sure what the quickest path is to the stand-by line, and I sure don't want to waste time looking around or getting stuck at a dead end. If anyone has been there recently, I would love to know the best way to go. Thank you so much!

You'll be following the CM's and going with the masses.

But quickest route to the ride is slight right of the Chinese theater, down the steps/wheelchair ramp, turn left and it's ahead on your right.

The construction at the park really doesn't affect anything for you. Nothing is blocked off or making you detour aside from trying to go past TSMM where the Backlot tour uses to be
