Most festival events are increasing their green polices in order to produce a more sustainable way of transport. Festivals are seen to be more challenging areas to get to, as a result of this, event managers are increasing their public transport in order to run the process smoothly as-well as help increase the green environment. Although, many festival events such as; Glastonbury, Shambala, V festival etc… are the types of events that benefit from reliable sources of transportation and involves themselves in making new ways of an easier and more maintainable future for travel.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Shambala Festival (2016)<\/p><\/div>\n Issues associated with energy, natural resource depletion, climate change, and other environmental issues are likely to grow in importance and create motivation for changes in transportation activities and agency decision-making.<\/p>\n Sustainability is a term that focuses on the balance amongst economic, environmental, and social concerns, and developing and providing a system that can be sustained over the long-term.<\/p>\n Many Festival events are reducing the causes of congestion by improving eco-friendly ways of getting about. Promoting public transport facilities and car sharing are just a couple of the ways in which congestion and sustainable transportation can be improved. Shambala and Glastonbury are both festivals that demonstrate the importance of minimising the sustainability issues that reflect badly on events, so that event managers can make changes and increase these transportation issues for more eligible ways of getting around for future events.<\/p>\n Green travel plans are inflicted amongst stakeholders as many festival events influence people to travel in more sustainable ways in order to restore\u00a0our environment and enhance our sustainability future.<\/p>\n We must promote all events to think about our environment and ensure we have a sustainable future in our events industry!<\/p>\n Consumers need better ways of Transport…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n There are a range of transportation systems that are available within most events. Transport is an essential tool within the events industry and is highly significant on the purpose of an event taking place.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Event consumers suggest that without ranges of transport, events can lose their effectiveness which can reflect on the stakeholders expectations and can seek major problems before the event has begun.<\/em><\/p>\n There are\u00a0a\u00a0range of \u00a0transportation issues that can minimise event spacing and cause congestion on main roads and highways. As a result of this, private transport issues are formed from the lack of car sharing and less people using public transport facilities. These are a few issues that underpin issues in private transport;<\/em><\/p>\n In addition to passenger travel, changes in global and national economic activity, fuel prices, and policy will influence freight travel demand.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n A lot festival events use car sharing as a vital component of transport in order to minimise the carbon footprint and improve events\u00a0sustainability\u00a0for future years.\u00a0Festival transport are improving throughout the years, whilst the use of private transport during these\u00a0events is slowly minimising in order to increase a better environment and to promote more use in public transport facilities. Car transport is the most popular type of\u00a0travel, the increase of stakeholders rely on car travel as a more\u00a0productive\u00a0and faster way of travelling to and from events.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Festivals are finding new ways of promoting greener types of travel to minimise the carbon footprint and reduce waste of energy.<\/p>\n Glastonbury Festival (2009)<\/p>\n \u00a02.<\/strong>\u00a0Public Transportation- More\u00a0facilities and Greener ways of Transport\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n However, the use of public transport can cause a range of problems as it\u2019s a reliability on public services being on time and making sure their working more efficiently. Most events have a variety of different ways of transport either public or private.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n However, public transport holds a huge responsibility for time consumption as-well as a great amount of reliability that consumers can trust and rely on.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n These highlight a few issues that pubic transport suffer from;<\/p>\n As a result of these common issues, all events must ensure that they have a suitable area for both personal and public ways of transport in order to minimise problems from occurring.<\/em><\/p>\n Copyright Image: Geograph – Glastonbury Festival Car Park (2009)<\/p>\n Is Transport an\u00a0essential\u00a0tool for events?
