The 7th annual Conference on Transportation studies, organized by research unit TTL- Transport Territory and Logistics of the Iuav University of Venice, examined the problems related to the mobility during the mass events. The conference discussed on the new infrastructures and services required to satisfy the peak of demand during the event and the way to convert them to the standard requirements of the area after the event is over. An event can be defined a mass event both in absolute and in relative terms compared to the size of the city and its transportation issues. Examples of this can be provided by the Olympic games and Other sport events, the Expos and the international Fairs, concerts, religious events and so on. The first day of the conference focused on the comparison between decision makers at national and regional levels. This book presents the proceedings of the second day of the conference (Scientific Seminar) and covers the fields of: - the case studies and a critical review of the past big events in the vision of the future ones - the analysis of the mobility issues in the case of large events (demand forecast and models) - upgrading and downgrading the transport systems ␣ projects and scenarios - master plan and evaluation models.

Abstract
The 7th annual Conference on Transportation studies, organized by research unit TTL- Transport Territory and Logistics of the Iuav University of Venice, examined the problems related to the mobility during the mass events. The conference discussed on the new infrastructures and services required to satisfy the peak of demand during the event and the way to convert them to the standard requirements of the area after the event is over. An event can be defined a mass event both in absolute and in relative terms compared to the size of the city and its transportation issues. Examples of this can be provided by the Olympic games and Other sport events, the Expos and the international Fairs, concerts, religious events and so on. The first day of the conference focused on the comparison between decision makers at national and regional levels. This book presents the proceedings of the second day of the conference (Scientific Seminar) and covers the fields of: - the case studies and a critical review of the past big events in the vision of the future ones - the analysis of the mobility issues in the case of large events (demand forecast and models) - upgrading and downgrading the transport systems ␣ projects and scenarios - master plan and evaluation models.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
