The Stadium project is the result of a European tender

As part of the Funding operation known as the Seventh Framework Programme, the European Commission issues invitations to tender aimed at encouraging international co-operation in research activities and pilot actions on various Subjects, including the important subject of Transport.
The Stadium project was born from a planning proposal made by 17 partners in response to a European Call for management of transports during important events, and it is co-funded by the European Committee Research DG Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Development. The project aims to improve the performance of services and transport systems during important events in the host cities, and foresees demonstrations of ITS (Intelligent Transport System) applications for 3 important events: the Football World Cup in South Africa (2010), the Commonwealth Games in India (2010) and the London Olympic Games (2012).




Meticulous planning

Within the Stadium project, Pluservice has the job of co-ordinating the demonstration in South Africa
With the support of South African partners, a project for implementation of an on-demand transport service in Cape Town has been drawn up. The system will integrate with local public transport and will support it during the Football World Cup in 2010, also remaining as a mobility support after the event. The project involves creation of an AVL control centre and a Demand Responsive Transport system, with management of a Call Centre that will be responsible for collecting transport requests.
The system will allow real time monitoring of approximately 50 vehicles, which will be entirely dedicated to passenger transport during the World Cup in the area surrounding the new Greenpoint Stadium, which stands right in the centre of Cape Town close to the well-known Waterfront area.
Pluservice will create the entire Control Centre at the headquarters of the local taxi and minibus operator Peninsula Holdings, who has signed a contract with the project partners. The South African partners will deal with on-board instrumentation for the vehicles and relations with the local FIFA Committees and local administration.
It is expected that a control centre with basic functions and the first 20 fully equipped vehicles will be ready within January 2010, the month in which the first World Cup Dry Run test will be carried out by FIFA and the Cape Town Municipal authorities.
The complete system is expected to be ready by March 2010, ready for testing before the World Cup Championship in June. Cape Town will host 8 Matches, including one semi-final.
