I've heard that it was removed from both parks due to safety issues that would cost too much to bring up to compliance...Jacca5660 wrote:Why do you think Disney removed it?momeja wrote:I loved the Skyway.

From what I've heard from Disney techs in the know, is that is was all about the cost of upkeep! There weren't really any safety concerns, but there were pocketbook concerns.

Hmmm, never heard about financial concerns for either the Skyway buckets or 20K subs. Makes sense though...mindflipper wrote:That was the reason for closing 20K LUTS.Jacca5660 wrote:From what I've heard from Disney techs in the know, is that is was all about the cost of upkeep!
