Safe environment for pedestrians participating in public events

Ensuring comfortable and safe conditions for visitors to large-scale events of various kinds is one of the priority areas for the organizers. There are many examples when insufficient attention was paid to security issues, which led to sad consequences for the audience. Mistakes in planning evacuation routes in emergency situations are the main cause of panic for a crowd of people. Victims of the evacuation can be avoided with a well-organized system of informing the audience and a pre-planned visual orientation with signs and arrows, as well as sound. Visitors should be instructed and aware of the routes and exits that should be used in case of emergency evacuation. This article discusses the possibility of creating the necessary prerequisites for improving the safety of pedestrians participating in mass events. The presented study is aimed at forming the necessary foundations for developing recommendations to improve the safety of events with a large number of participants.
