Temporary mobility: effectiveness and reliability

The design of mobility systems for big events is at the heart of Citec’s activity. Sports competitions, shows, parties… large events are situations that place exceptional demands on territories and infrastructures. These projects of extreme complexity and great uncertainty are the subject of considerable challenges that affect not only the functioning of the event itself, but also the image of the host territory, its capacity to welcome the public, as well as the resilience and reliability of its management systems. Our experts support the territories, the organizers as well as the owners of the event, from the application to the operational management during the event. By combining a perfect mastery of transport engineering and a proven knowledge of the operation of large events and their specific needs, Citec knows how to design effective and robust solutions, ensuring that the event is carried out in the best conditions.
