有1万多名运动员和1.400万观众涌入多伦多, the province turned to IBI Group to answer the unprecedented transportation challenge presented by the nearly two-month event taking place across the Greater Golden Horseshoe.
A wide-ranging strategy was critical to ensure that athletes and officials would reliably arrive to competitions on-time – not to mention the fans. 同时, we needed to keep this already-busy region moving at a smooth pace to reduce the impacts on businesses and residents. IBI Group’s integrated transportation strategy was delivered through nine key elements:
- Project Management: IBI Group developed and managed an integrated 运输 Delivery Plan with input from 30+ organizations including 12 different transit agencies, 8家专业运输公司, 警察部队, 和运动会组织者.
- Local Area Plans: We led the creation of multi-modal transportation plans for the areas surrounding each competition venue, 包括观众步行路线的策略, 扩大自行车存放处, 航天飞机, 和停车.
- Wayfinding and 标志: Our intuitive wayfinding and signage strategy ensured uniform, easy-to-understand directions for spectators trying to find various competition venues.
- 游戏路线网络和HOV车道:IBI计划超过1个,500km of routes connecting the Athlete’s Village in Toronto’s downtown core with venues across the Golden Horseshoe region. 这是通过一系列交通措施实现的, 包括安装235公里的临时HOV车道.
- 观众停车操作及控制中心:我们有组织, designed and operated 13 parking lots as well as a central control centre that utilized mobile reporting, 指示板, 无人机视频直播, 还有一个在线预订系统.
- 运输 Demand Management and Communications: This included pre-event analysis and capacity quantification to determine the Games’ impact on the region’s transportation network, as well as customer-facing materials that informed visitors of the multi-modal options available during the event. We also designed and delivered the 2015 Games Trip Planner app and specified functional requirements for the associated Triplinx planner.
- Unified 运输 Coordination Centre: IBI designed a collaborative control space that united the real-time systems operations of local, 区域, 省级交通运输机构也是第一次.
- Games Transit Operations: We designed the inter-jurisdictional Games Transit Network comprising accessible transit routes that connected major 区域 hubs in the Golden Horseshoe to all venues.
- 性能的措施 & Real-Time Monitoring: IBI developed a comprehensive framework to monitor and analyze the Games’ transportation network using real-time data.
