Overview
- On-site reports from March 19 show boundary wall materials, construction equipment, and stakes positioned along the Sassagoula River by Saratoga Springs.
- Yellow floating turbidity barriers are in place to limit sediment movement, protect the riverbank from erosion, and keep debris out of the waterway.
- Parts of the existing river edge remain untouched as work progresses, with modifications visible to some metal barriers along the bank.
- Disney has not announced any interruption to the Sassagoula River Cruise that links Saratoga Springs, Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter, Old Key West, and Disney Springs, though observers note potential for future disruptions.
- Separate transit changes add context for guests, including a planned Wilderness Lodge boat dock closure from April 13 to May 1 and the March 31 shutdown of Anaheim’s ART buses with a Garden Grove hotel shuttle replacing limited routes.
