Orlando's locker location by comparison:
There are still paths for the outer walkway. Either under the ramp and canopy, or, between the ramp and Speedway.

I assume it will take the two tunnel route (otherwise, why have the tunnels?) but don’t honestly know.

To be fair i feel the TTC could deff use a small expansion/modernization. A starbucks and maybe a small indoor disney store and bigger bathrooms would go a long way. Even if its just sort of purgatory on your way to the MK.

The bottom route does not appear in the concept art and likely runs too close to backstage paths for comfort. I'm a bit torn between the top and middle as options. The middle includes the two shortest cuts through the flyovers, so it's a possibility, but it also gets close to backstage near the end. Much more manageable in general, though. The top route keeps pedestrians in darkness for quite a bit longer because it would probably need to run even a bit farther north than shown to fully clear the canopy support, but that might be the point of that triangular gap just below the locker building, assuming it's a hole to allow light to flood into the area below and not a planter of some sort.

I think if we were getting a stairs, we’d already see it.

Latest look at the ETFE cushion canopy installation at TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom
The massive plastic canopy is now being installed at Walt Disney World's TRON rollercoaster.

Can anyone please explain what ETFE means / stands for? And what exactly is a cushion canopy?

ADA ≠ Wheelchair Users. There are a number of accessibility requirements related to stairs in the ADA Standards for Accessible Design and EPCOT Accessibility Code. Access provided along an accessible route doesn’t have to be the same for those using stairs and those using another means.

ETFE is a type of plastic (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene). The panels are actually inflated instead of being a solid, rigid material.Latest look at the ETFE cushion canopy installation at TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom

It's non stick too, like Teflon.Is ETFE at Tron: Lightcycle run will be protected from the rain and cold and wind?
Snow will just slide right off it.
Why the **** does there need to be another Starbucks on-site?
Anywho… the canopy will be nicknamed “Gotti”, nothing will stick to it!
Because it is essentially a composite with Teflon from my understanding.
Self cleaning as can be. Probably one of the major reasons since dirt and gunk is less likely to stick.

I mean, people spend up to an hour on line for Starbucks in the parks at peak times, having another location at the TTC could help alleviate wait times in MK and EPCOT.
If I had my way with it, they'd all be spending their time waiting in line somewhere off-property. Of course, I'm not a coffee drinker, so I don't understand what the absurd addiction/obsession is with SB. Over-hyped, over-priced. Wait... that fits perfectly with the Bob-era Disney.
Anyway, I don't want coffee to derail this thread.

I don't care if they serve Starbucks coffee, I just wish they didn't have the Starbucks logo plastered all over everything. It's a distraction from theme to have the Starbucks logo on the signage and windows of the Main Street Bakery, for example.
Admittedly it could be worse than it is.
