It's a 450m mistake. More, if they continue south, thinking there might be a new crossing along the new "path" to the TPSS.
That's a signage issue. It's reasonable for someone walking from Seagram to expect the Central Drive crossing to be open, since it was until not too long ago. It should be prominently signed (at Seagram, where people are taking the decision where to go) that the crossing is no longer open. And it's not at all unreasonable for someone to believe there might be another crossing further south- there will be, one day- so you're right that it could be a significant distance to be doubling back.
By the way, is Seagram closed at the tracks this week? It had closed during the day on Tuesday (though non-car traffic was still getting through, it seemed).
