News Peoplemover closed for refurbishment

[davis_unoxx]

Peoplemover closed since before Disney closed before Corona, and now is under refurbishment for at least the next few months...

EDIT: Last updated this post six months ago, still no end in site it seems. It is being fixed however so don't worry, people have been commenting that testing is ongoing.

Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover now listed as under multi-month refurbishment

Despite being seen operating without guests, it looks like the ride will be out of service for some-time.

Goodness, it is a bit odd that all of these issues and problems are happening at the same time....

Well, you would know the most about it (checks username)

Maybe everyone's working their rear ends off to push Rise of the Resistance up the hill. Also, there's Ratatouille and MMRR.

Remember when Bush took over the White House and rumor was Clinton's staff removed all the W's from the keyboards? Maybe Iger planted all sorts of pranks around the parks before leaving.

It's no coincidence. This is going to continue to happen until TDO invests some REAL money into upkeep and maintenance. We're paying under / over $200 a day for this.

Here we go again...

Was at MK yesterday. Around 6PM, I talked with the CM who was in front of the TTA...they said it would not be opening today. I never went back later to check, but at that point, it was highly unlikely.

MK is such a mess right now with show quality. CoP, Haunted Mansion, TTA. Oof.

Did the hand fall off again?

CoP and TTA have been a mess for nearly 2 decades. HM looked great last time I was on it.

If you don't keep your arms inside the car at all times... yes.

HM was down for several days this past week and when it reopened someone forgot to close the maintenance bay in the attic scene. HM is a hot mess.

Hello! Just wanted to let you guys know that the Peoplemover at the Magic Kingdom has been closed since yesterday at 1 PM. Hopefully our wonderful leader Bob can put some attractions into refurbishment and actually fix them!

I think Bob and Bob #1 priority is contingency Covid-19 plans and how and when to pull the trigger.

Mansion received lots of love when Phil Holmes was VP. I wish they would have moved his creepy portrait into that attraction and had his glistening smile follow you as you pass by.

Karma is a funny thing though. His family was loaded into a PeopleMover vehicle with torn up padded seats a few years later. The maintenance team reportedly received many emails following that experience.

A mechanical issue that has since been repaired and a single isolated incident of someone forgetting to close a door. Not exactly a problem with the attractions show quality and certainly not the same issue that plagues COP.

Upper management should be required to visit the parks as guests on a routine bases. It's pretty obvious most of them don't.

As REGULAR guests...not VIPs. They can't truly understand the experience unless they're experiencing it the same way Joe Schmoe does.

Absolutely.

Honestly there may be some attractions they feel are more prone to cleanliness issues that are difficult to keep up with? Then again I would expect Spaceship Earth to be closed right now also if that was the case.
