World's Fair Transportation System Evaluation, 1982

摘要

This evaluation was commissioned to more fully understand and benefit from the experiences which built the 1982 World's Fair. It is hoped that review of the decision-making process, actions, and consequences experienced in Knoxville will be valuable to others involved in high density special events transportation planning and management. Findings in this report are based heavily on interviews and meetings with key individuals involved with the Fair. In addition World's Fair planners, implementors and operators were called upon to share their perceptions and review the findings. As a supplement to these human resources limited data from a portion of the Fair's 184 day run were incorporated in this Phase I report. This report should be considered preliminary, and subject to modification based on further analysis of data for the full run of the Fair.
