MEGA SPORTS EVENT TRANSPORTATION AND MAIN MOBILITY MANAGEMENT ISSUES
Transportation strategy, organization, management and costs grow exponentially with the magnitude and complexity of very large events. The basic issues concerning large-scale transportation are mostly characterized by: the unusual magnitude and volume of spectators, activities, visitors, and logistical flows; the geographical and spatial concentration of traffic flows; traffic flow time-concentration due to event scheduling; the superposition of various categories of transport and traffic flows; the development of innovative temporary transport and traffic management as well as ticketing schemes; the definition of appropriate agreement between mega-event organizers and public authorities; and the systematic development of security schemes for crowd control and specific traffic management.
