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 offerd 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.) <a href="http://www.rideart.org/ART-Map.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.rideart.org/ART-Map .pdf</a>

Originally Posted By Darkbeer NO, ART will always start earlier than 8 AM if it is needed for Early Entry and/or Regular Park Opening. And it will run at least 30 minutes after park closing. But no longer is the ART system just for Disney, it now has standard minimum hours, no matter when Disney opens or closes, which is a good thing, especially on slower days, when the system was running 9 AM to 8:30 PM some nights. This will allow folks to spend time at both Downtown Disney and Anaheim GardenWalk and still get a ride back to their hotel.

The only one that looks close is Bubba Gump's, they have some of the signage up already.
