QUEUES
- How many queues
and possible bottlenecks will there be?
- Have adequate
personnel greeters, crowd controllers, ticket collectors and security been
allocated?
- Is signage(including
the estimated waiting time) in place?
- When will the
queues form? Will they form at once or over a period of time?
- How can the
perceived waiting time be reduced? e.g. queue entertainers
- What first
aid, access and emergency procedures are in place?
- Are the lighting,
sun and rain protection adequate?
- Are crowd friendly
barricades and partitions in place?
- Are toilets,
food and water needed?
- Are different
booths needed for different payment methods or prepaid?
You never get away
from queuing and yet very little thought goes into it. The EPMS CDROM has detailed
information on this vital logistical aspect of event.
