Volcano Bay Construction & Preview Discussion

[epcyclopedia]

I'm confused by the traffic flow in/out of Volcano Bay...



That teardrop with the island in the middle on the left is a bus drop off. For what buses....?

The tunnel is the tram.. but where does it unload? Is it going to be a lot smaller than we were expecting? Compare it in size/scale to the bus parking spaces on the teardrop's island.

And seriously, where are those buses coming from or going to? They have to loop around the back side of the park.

I think it's hotel services.

You think this new building with windows is hotel services? It ain't. Loews hotels offices are just a wee bit further south of this new structure... in a large building that UC was also housed in during the sad days.

Perhaps I have misunderstood you?

That's actually the building we are referring to. Doesn't UC keep some offices in that building to this day?

I haven't believed so since they purchased the two office towers on their own backstage. Much of the creative of creative is done in the very large building known as B32. (I think that is what it's number is) behind those two towers.

Don't forget the building near the new park site.

Hun, I could tell you stories about that building and the rebuild before they moved on site. I don't believe I will forget about that.

I hope I hear them some day.

Bungalow 32 is the Entertainment building. Events is based out of there too. So Mardi Gras and HHN - but I don't think UC.

You've stumbled onto future expansions of the resort! Not clear on all the specifics quite yet but all UOR resorts will have expanded his service to the transportation hub and I believe VB.

And look at all the space between this structure and the first slide north of there. Right now it is construction trailers. I wonder what they will do with that area?

More Harry Potter! (Kidding!)

Looks like a nice large spot to fit a mammoth water coaster...and another slide complex! (Hopefully sooner rather than later!)

Come into what as well? If you could be more specific on the "that"?

Fun fact that I learned after it got down to 24 on my front lawn yet the next day there was no damage at all. I was baffled so I called the weather department at one of the local news stations in Orlando. Turns out that if the dew point is crazy low which it had been, then no moisture will collect on the leaves and no damage will occur after a few hours.

I should have finished reading your post, all I did was read the first sentence and didn't read that last one in bold. My bad.

What I was referring to is what you mentioned how when the dew point is lower than freezing (0 celsius / 32 F) it is then called the frost point and the temperature must then get down to the frost point in order for frost to occur.

So it looks like we now know which river is which, based on the load in designs. Looks like the southern river will be the Rapids style river and interestingly enough, seems to take a deeper route through the volcano.

Those letters seem they should be just a tad bit larger.

From distance I think look a little lost but will look great when walking up to the entrance.

Much like Festival Bay/ Artegon sign.

I definitely thought the same thing. Maybe just maybe they will have hotel to Volcano Bay transit not associated with the tram?

Looking way back to this drawing for the trams/buses to the car park.


The teardrop area doesn't mention anything about buses but this an old map so things could have changed. From what I can make out, buses from the hotels will enter the road around the ponds from Pacifica Way and then drop the guests off at the pedestrian tunnel.

Looking back at this again, it does look like a pick up/drop off bus area and the only reason I can find for this is that it will be for guests staying at Wet n Wild plot or the 3rd gate whenever it opens. That way they only have to drive up Turkey Lake Road and round the outside of VB instead of heading directly into the current resort.

This is why I enjoy your posts. You can put what I am thinking and the things I post into representations. Much appreciate your input dude.
