Noticed the Tram Routes have been changed and renamed, they are now NUMBERS instead of letters. The signage at the Resort, including the bus stops in the Lion King Tram Loading area have been changed.

It looks like the Anaheim GardenWalk is a major reason for the change, as 13 out of the 16 new routes have a stop at the AGW. (Some restaurants are scheduled to open in mid November).

Every route except Route 16 runs every 20 minutes. Route 16, the one that goes to the Block of Orange still is offered once per hour.

The other main change, the standard hours are now 8 AM to Midnight, as the GardenWalk will remain open later than the parks on many nights. (Also ART will start earlier on the days the DLR opens prior to 9 AM.)

Thanks for the update, Darkbeer!

Do you happen to know if the stop for the AGW would be on Harbour, or if the ART busses would have to pull off of Harbour? I don't know the development of the area well enough to know how this change will affect travel time.

Thanks for any extra info you can give.

When the AGW is completed, as I understand it, the ART trams will enter the complex on Disney Way (the main entrance) then drive down a road between the parking structure and Clementine Way, basically dropping/picking up folks in the middle of the complex in special area for buses and valet pick up/drop off.

But that is not yet available, I presume they will drop people off on or near Katella, as that is where the first few restaurants will open next month.
