Project	Sydney Olympics project, Sydney, Australia
When	2000

Problem	A new building was developing – would the crowd adapt to the new environment? There were two minor injuries on site – were the existing safety procedures adequate?
Solution	The DIM-ICE risk model applied emphasising more on the circulation movement of the people attending the event The development of a one-way system optimising crowd movement by using the Network analysis theory
Benefits	The identification of the expected number of pedestrians moving in the common domain Information provided to patrons that enabled them to manage their schedule to arrive to the stadium on time without experiencing any unpleasant incident The design of the queuing system was improved to achieve more efficient inflow A successful event was achieved Customer satisfaction was enhanced
People impacted by the project recommendations	6,800,000 during the games
