As for the actual content, listing each day of the week instead of grouping days with the same hours is definitely an improvement. Using just a letter for the day of the week is harder for people less English-literate and translation software won't be able to do anything with it, unlike the "before" examples, especially the ones that use the full words instead of abbreviations. Museums often have a lot of international tourists visiting.
The vertical format is much harder to make accessible to screen reader users but the article doesn't have any alt attributes on the images so he's not considering that. It's also harder for Google and other tools to parse to present accurate answers when people search for "museum name hours."
Having the hours in bars with lengths that vary based on how long they're open and the bar's position being based on opening time might be a useful enhancement to displaying the opening/close hours.
