There was a sidewalk at one point. Here are some shots from Google Earth. In the first, you can see the crosswalk from the corner of Victory Way (where CBR is) and then the sidewalk on the north side of Buena Vista Drive. This sidewalk connected to the walkway from the BW to DHS. The next photo shows that the crosswalk is gone, and Disney began to allow the sidewalk to fall into disrepair. What remained of the sidewalk was removed completely when the Skyliner became operational (I assume to keep people from walking under the Skyliner itself, since there was no barrier there). If it had been well used, I am sure Disney would have found a way to relocate it or install a fence to separate the Skyliner path.I’d love to see more walking paths as well. Connect Riviera (and by extension CB and the other nearby hotels) to world showcase and Hollywood Studios. They aren’t for everyone but every person who opts to walk takes one person off other transit methods.
