Are you ready for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games?

London 2012 will have a massive impact on the UK:
Expected to boost the economy by over £21bn
Over 10.8 million tickets will be available
10.8 million spectators expected to attend Games
14,700 athletes from 205 countries
27,500 media and broadcasters
Up to 70,000 volunteers
800,000 people expected to use the public transport on the busiest day of the Games
240,000 people will travel by rail to the Olympic Park every hour
Organisations impacted by the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games allowed themselves an average of 18 months to get everything they thought they would need – from extra network capacity to new working practices – in place.
