“…The successful management of urban mobility during major events is a multifaceted endeavor that requires careful planning, dynamic decision-making, and innovative solutions [9]. Han et al [10] and Lassacher et al [11] have identified several policies that can help mitigate the impacts of peak mobility demand associated with major events, particularly controlling road closures, diverting private motorized traffic onto alternative routes, assisting travelers with real-time information systems, enhancing public transit services, managing pedestrian traffic, and implementing parking management measures.…”

Urban transportation systems encounter distinctive challenges during planned major city events characterized by large gatherings that disrupt traffic patterns. The surge in private car usage for attending such events leads to a sudden increase in traffic, unauthorized parking, pollutant emissions, and risks to pedestrian safety in the vicinity of the event venue. This study delves into the challenges and advantages of employing Decision Support Systems (DSSs) to manage urban mobility during special urban events with the goal of reducing car dependency and promoting sustainable transportation options. The proposed methodology for designing and testing the DSS is based on the living lab principles of co-planning, co-implementing, co-monitoring, co-validating, and co-reviewing with engaged stakeholders. Moreover, testing of the DSS measures in real-world cases (i.e., during a football match at the San Siro Stadium and a concert at the Alcatraz music hall in the city of Milan, Italy) highlights the potential of the DSS in reducing the use of individual private cars in favor of shared mobility and micro-mobility solutions. As a result, the living lab has proven to be a valuable tool for interacting with stakeholders from the outset of brainstorming ideas for potential transport policies to their practical implementation, with the goal of bridging the gap between what decision-makers believe should be done, what transport operators can feasibly do, and what users desire and expect to be done. The insights presented in this paper contribute to the debate on leveraging technology to cultivate more efficient, resilient, and livable urban environments.

So far, the primary urban informatics connections between service design and urban design have been researched within healthcare and transportation systems. However, as mass events are becoming essential to urban life and new event venues are built in densifying downtowns, a particular design challenge linking the venue and its urban surroundings comes from the people flow. This study investigates mobility and privacy issues related to the information shared in the context of event attendance, with a survey of 880 ice-hockey fans as the respondents. The study addresses the factors that impact the experiences of sharing urban informatics among event attendees.
