Supporting UN Sustainable Development Goals

The Chase Center is the highly anticipated mixed-use, multi-purpose arena set to be the impressive new home for the five-time NBA champions, the Golden State Warriors. Located along the coastline of Mission Bay in San Francisco, the Chase Center will offer a state-of-the-art indoor venue designed to host a variety of major events, from sports and concerts to conventions and shows. The arena will be complemented by approximately 3 acres of landscaped public space and new retail outlets to serve the surrounding community.

Led by our modelling and analytical expertise, Momentum supported the arena during the preliminary design stages with crowd flow and traffic modelling to ensure the best design provisions were made to improve the circulation of visitors and spectators before, during, and after event times. As part of our involvement during the preliminary design stages of the Chase Center, Momentum led the preparation of traffic models that incorporated key elements of the stadium parking area to help assess the anticipated impacts of event day traffic on the surrounding highway network. Thanks to our ability to provide robust and detailed operational car parking models, we were able to assist the design team in understanding potential queues outside the stadium, while also enabling internal stakeholders to better estimate the demand for shuttle services and coaches.

Stadia & Venues

“We start with your objectives and provide advice, analysis and services to optimise each stadium’s earning potential and visitor experience. Through seamless movement for people and transport; improved safety in and around your venue, decreased queuing times and crowding and maximising the efficiency and revenue of your concessions.”

Sports stadia and entertainment venues bring together thousands of people in one place, providing cultural and community hubs which create unique pressures on the transport and pedestrian environment and require distinct design solutions. Our work with stadia and venues places the spectator at its core, developing crowd management, operations, and design solutions which enhance their experience of the event and protect their safety.

Having delivered solutions for many of the world’s most prestigious venues, our long term relationships with venue owners and operators enables us to develop and oversee tailored venue operations plans and provide analytics for spectator demands and travel patterns.

We work closely with leading architects, providing design and analytical advice to support the design of venues, from the seating bowl to the local transport hubs.
