Disney will begin reducing physical distancing to 3ft over the next few weeks at Walt Disney World
The return to more normal operations continues at Walt Disney World.
Needless to say -- This is BIG.

5th gate? Just build a new resort Bob.
Makes sense. Will be a huge help on the Skyliner, park buses, pools, certain queues, Tower of Terror, and DME.

If it's safe to do now, that's great news.

Except for indoor dining. Blah so I guess that’ll still be limited capacity
Really wish they would reduce distancing a bit in the restaurants. Of course, I understand the logic in not doing so. But right now, seems many restaurants are using MORE than 6 feet distancing.
And WDW desperately needs more dining capacity.
But if queues, etc, are reducing to 3 feet by June... maybe dining will see reductions by July.
And this really opens up the possibility for fireworks, especially at Epcot, where 3' of distance would be pretty easy around the Showcase.

This is fantastic. One step closer to normalcy.

I believe restaurant reopenings and/or longer hours are on the immediate horizon, based on the hiring they and the 3rd party operators have been doing. I think the distancing in restaurants will end by mid summer though.

I agree. Let’s be honest 3ft of social distancing is basically an arms length so I hope they don’t try to enforce that too crazy

Wonder if they will remove all markers or actually try to put 3ft ones down
I suspect "enforcement" to be gentle reminders when there are throngs of people. I don't think they will be taking out tape measures and backing people up by a foot.

Yeah 3ft feels more because they don’t want to say no more social distancing just yet but hey with all the times I’ve felt like a sardine at wdw I wouldn’t mind a little buffer haha

If Universal is any indication, 3 ft is basically slightly more than a normal line. Depending on who is standing in queue behind you, at least. The markers don't even matter anymore because two people take up more than 3 ft. Some are back to their normal "bump into you they're so close."
Probably would be better to remove the markers and just have signage stating/showing to stand one arm length away from the group in front of you.

Another step closer! It feels like things are speeding up.
