Workshop: Public Transport and Large Events - Best Practices in Preparing and Delivering Public Transportation for Major Events

Large events, especially international sports competitions, have significant positive impacts on cities. The events help cities to develop infrastructure and improve the quality of life. The cities require investing in infrastructure development, such as new facilities, transportation improvements, and upgraded public spaces. The large events also have a big economic impact on the local economy. Taylor Swift economic impact is clear evidence that how important these events are.

While the benefits are substantial, it’s also crucial for cities to carefully plan and manage these events to mitigate potential challenges, such as financial burdens, social disruptions, and environmental impacts. Successful event hosting requires a comprehensive approach that considers both short-term and long-term implications for the city and its residents.

UITP is organizing a series of workshops to discuss best practices in managing major events for public transportation.
