New website launched for Planned Special Events
Posted: 3/7/2025

FHWA has launched the Planned Special Events (PSE) website to support transportation practitioners that focus on mobility planning for PSEs. Planned special events (PSEs) refer to public activities with scheduled times, locations, and durations that can significantly affect transportation system operations. Managing travel for planned special events involves advanced operations planning, stakeholder coordination and partnerships, developing multiagency transportation management plans, making the public and event patrons aware of potential travel impacts, and coordinating agency services and resource sharing. This new site spotlighting mega-PSEs such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup™, highlights PSE-focused webinars and tools to support PSE practitioners.
