PHOTOS: Preliminary Social Distancing Markers Added to Queue For Resort Boat Transportation at Disney Springs

With the theme parks of Walt Disney World Resort beginning their phased peopening on July 11, 2020, preparations are being made across property in order to comply with new health and safety guidelines in the wake of COVID-19. When Disney Springs reopened on May 20, the most noticeable change throughout was the addition of large stickers on the ground showing people where to stand in order to maintain a safe social distance, or six feet, from others in the queue with them.

The Sassagoula Steamboat Co. boat ramp leads to the boat resort transportation from Disney Springs to Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and Disney’s Old Key West Resort and boat transportation to the West Side of Disney Springs. Recently, tape marks were added along both sides of the queues for loading the boats, we assume in preparation for the reopening of Disney Vacation Club properties on June 22, 2020.

These tape marks will likely be replaced by more permanent markers that match the rest of Disney Springs at a later date, if not closer to the weekend before the resorts reopen on Monday. The stickers used elsewhere in the Springs all match, regardless of what store they were placed outside of, signaling that Disney provided and installed these markings.

Social distancing markers

Buses and boat transportation are expected to be the only methods of transportation available to resort guests from June 22 until the parks reopen on July 11, which is when transportation will be expanded to the parks.
