Iconic Purple Directional Signs Being Replaced

WondersOfLife

Blink, blink. Breathe, breathe. Day in, day out.
Find it very interesting that they needed this to be digital, wonder what else they’re going to do with it
There are many things they can do with this... Especially if there is, say, a specifically big event going that can point folks in the right direction.
  • Temporary Events
  • Future additions (Resorts, park, whatever, ect.)
  • Re-Routes to avoid high traffic peak times in certain locations/construction zones
  • Indicating a park is closed off to guests due to capacity
  • Indicating a water park is closed

These can actually be very useful if used for these things...

They can also put up weird passive aggressive messages about Ron DeSantis on demand.

Take for example:

EPCOT NEXT RIGHT
Ron, that suit just isn't your style.

Or: MK: 40 minute wait for Dole Whips
EP: Figment popcorn buckets sold out
AK: Dinosaur-no lights or AA’s working…
HWD: SW Galactic Starcruiser now 80% off…vacancy NOW…
You know, useful information…

Per their agreement with the new board, Disney. I’m sure they always managed these on a day to day basis anyway though
I think day to day management of all CFTOD f/k/a RCID utilities including "water, natural gas, roadway maintenance, waste and recycling, sewage and wastewater treatment" has been subcontracted to Reedy Creek Energy Services. Which is Disney.

So the board can't even control that.

Since they're digital, I wonder if they would change the colors if enough people complained.
Funny enough the one that first turned on over Epcot world drive started with the new color scheme of blue and white. But is now is displaying its directions in the more wdw traditional red and purple. Just that one though. The others are still blue and white.

Two new digital signs have been installed on World Drive - one heading North and one heading South.
