In an update of today’s earlier story, sources indicate that Disney has changed direction and decided not to reopen the EPCOT Monorail line for the foreseeable future. Disney tested running monopolies on the EPCOT line a few days ago, but it was eventually decided that opening the EPCOT service would cause physical distancing problems in some places, especially at monorail stations in the resort where space is limited.
Members of the cast have been seen placing new distance markers at the EPCOT Monorail station in the Transport and Ticket Center, but this is to help with the distance for current extended queues for the Express Monorail.
With this decision, it seems likely that the EPCOT Monorail will only resume service after the pandemic has subsided.
