Supporting UN Sustainable Development Goals

Momentum supported in the preparation of transport and access plans for more than 40 tourist attractions in Qatar, forming part of the ‘countrywide experience’ for the 2022 world cup. The sites ranged from street festivals, to beach resorts, cultural attractions and open air shows.

We reviewed opportunities for access using public transport, shuttle buses and micromobility, as well as defining any parking requirements.

Key to the strategy, our team developed a hub-and-spoke strategy to serve regional sites, with demand concentrated on regional gateways which are easily reachable by bus or metro from Central Doha, also functioning as consolidation hubs for deliveries. In order to serve the smaller sites, we developed a concept for Demand Responsive Transport (DRT)-style minibus services.

Momentum provided capacity calculations for the transport connections to each region and site, providing an initial concept for shuttle bus frequencies, routes and fleet sizing.

We also supported the definition of disabled access requirements, delivery and servicing areas, required transport staff, and fleet dimensioning for the proposed shuttle buses.
