Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, Elgar 2

The great rugby venue now renamed as the Allianz Stadium. Always a great welcome.. Finally the works seems to have been completed and everything works pretty well.. maybe ch better now that they have broadened the fan zone, pushing back the entrances, creating a secure zone all around the stadium. All non smoking.. good news..

I visited this place for the first time early this month for a conference. Twickenham Stadium, the home of English rugby, is an iconic venue that exudes history and excitement. With a seating capacity of over 82,000, it's a formidable stage for international rugby matches, concerts, and events. The stadium's atmosphere is electric, with passionate fans creating an intimidating yet exhilarating environment. Facilities are modern and well-maintained, with excellent food and beverage options. The stadium's design ensures excellent views from all angles, with comfortable seating and ample legroom. However, a major area for improvement is traffic flow during events. Congestion around the stadium can be chaotic, leading to lengthy delays and frustration for attendees. To address this: 1. Enhance public transportation: Increase the frequency and capacity of trains, buses, and coaches to encourage fans to use public transport. 2. Optimize parking and drop-off points: Streamline parking allocation, and designate specific drop-off zones for taxis, ride-hailing services, and private vehicles. 3. Implement efficient traffic management: Employ experienced traffic marshals, utilize intelligent traffic signals, and introduce a contra-flow system to minimize congestion. 4. Promote walking and cycling: Encourage fans to walk or cycle to the stadium by providing secure bike parks and pedestrian-friendly routes. 5. Utilize technology: Leverage real-time traffic updates, mobile apps, and digital signage to inform attendees of traffic conditions and suggest alternative routes. By addressing traffic flow, Twickenham Stadium can further enhance the overall experience for attendees, solidifying its reputation as a world-class venue.
