I think someone said March 31st. I'm not an insider though, just going by what I've read others say. I do know that per the Universal site, that the lazy river and the standard rooms will not open until June 16th.
Screamscape has four images of the bridge & the walking path to the parks. It appears that the path will be on the same side of the road as the Royal Pacific & the empty lot. They do not appear to be using the sidewalk on the IOA side of the road.
Then what is the point of the bridge over Hollywood way? Their info cannot be correct or, is at least, only partially correct.
This path that Screamscape is showing would be a much more attractive path than the sidewalk on the IOA side. It looks like the whole path will be themed similar to the Portofino to Studios and RP to Citi Walk paths. That's a big plus since they are very enjoyable walks. But it is a bit longer than the IOA side walk. Probably apx. the same as the Portofino walk (apx. 15 minutes)....Teebin: There were previous posting of the Garden Bridge a good while back. But it seemed that everyone just understood it was going across Hollywood, but Adventure Way seems to make more sense since it allows for a very scenic pathway.
Thanks for the info :smiley: I've never stayed on property before...Since it looks like we'll be walking past the Royal Pacific, will we be able to stop there and use the water taxi? Also, how do we get from one side of Hollywood Way to the other without having to cross the busy street? I feel like it takes forever to get from the parking garage to City Walk, is the walk from Cabana Bay still going to be quicker even with this path change?
I don't imagine they'd mind (although at night they do check room keys) but to be honest it wouldn't be worthwhile; once you'd got that far it'd be quicker to carry on walking than double back to the RPR dock and wait for a boat.
I think RPR guests would mind, though. Imagine the lines for the RPR boat at Citywalk each night if a significant # of CBBR guests decide to cut their walk home in half and hop on the RPR boat?
I hope they check room keys.
