Event mobility has become a critical operational determinant of event success across North America. Following the post-2022 rebound in corporate, sports, and entertainment events, transportation systems are facing intensified strain driven by synchronized demand surges, constrained curb infrastructure, labor shortages, and information latency.
Across North American event operations, lead time expectations vary by event scale, stakeholder complexity, and service model. Mega-events such as stadium events, international sports, and major festivals typically require nine to eighteen months of transportation planning, including permitting and traffic modeling.
On-time performance targets for event mobility reflect both customer expectations and operational norms. Corporate and VIP transport commonly targets at least 95% on-time performance within defined windows, while event shuttles typically target ninety to 95%within pickup windows.
Event mobility breakdowns repeatedly concentrate in a predictable set of failure modes. Curb congestion is frequently the most binding constraint, with curb productivity studies indicating that forty to sixty feet of curb space is required per active passenger loading event.
