Thanks goodness. I like that path but during festivals it's brutal. And given that festivals feel near-year-round, it always feels crowded.
Are they planning on building something else along that path? Feels odd to be doing it just for the sake of widening...

This is good.

Bigger is better

A much needed improvement

Trying to get through the Rosewalk walkway during F&G this year was hell, at all times of the day. That path is always crowded when we go during F&G, but this year it felt like that it was more crowded than ever. Glad to hear they're widening it. Hopefully they'll widening it by getting ride of the area where the playground is. That's half of the problem eliminated right there.

These are the types of small improvements I like to see...

They really needed it

This path used to be nice and quiet - almost a secret little shortcut. Alas, the festivals changed that and it's only gotten worse over time. While I'm glad they're widening it to accommodate the newfound traffic, I'll miss the ol' gal. Here's one for posterity:

This walkway did need to be expanded.

I see lots of areas they can improve upon by simply removing the ODV cart that produces a long line, or carving out better stroller areas.

I hope they continue the path widening ...

While they are at it, they should probably add some shade...It''s become so hot out there during 6 months out of the year.

Would be nice ...

LOL... Disney ADD shade? Surely you jest.

I'd love to see some more covered areas/shady spots throughout World Showcase, it's really brutal when it's sunny. I usually end up carrying a parasol just to keep the sun's intensity down.

I'd love if it they could widen the path between Odyssey and Test Track.

Woody in Toy Story Land, looking for shade...

Does it need it?

 

[imarc]

Does it need it?

I think so. It's half the width of the other paths to/from the Odyssey.

Two way traffic requires people walk single file and no one seems to be capable of doing that anymore.

More fool them.
