FlexTram tram at FSU football stadium with fans riding on game day

Fall 2026 · Stadium operations

Your connected stadium ends at the parking lot.
We fix that.

Stadiums invest millions in fan experience inside the gates. But the parking lot — the first and last touchpoint of every game day — still runs on walkie-talkies and golf carts. FlexTram replaces scattered cart fleets with a high-capacity tram system that moves fans from remote lots to gates on a schedule, with one driver, ADA accessible as standard.

The problem

Millions on fan experience.
Nothing for the walk from the car.

Golf cart chaos
20-50 carts scattered across lots, each carrying 4-6 passengers. No fixed routes, no posted schedule. Dispatched on demand via radio with average utilization around 30%.
Post-game evacuation
60,000 fans pour into dark parking lots simultaneously. Pedestrians mixed with vehicles backing out of spaces, no separation, no system. Carts overwhelmed immediately. Fans walk.
ADA gaps
Accessible service is first-come, first-served from designated stalls only. No reliable schedule, no published route. Fans with mobility needs have no system they can count on.
Unmonetized parking lot
The highest-traffic real estate on game day generates zero sponsorship revenue. What could be a branded, high-visibility touchpoint is a pure cost center running on rented carts.

The solution

A system, not a rental.
Built for football season.

FlexTram deploys a pop-up tram loop in hours — no permanent infrastructure needed. A single tram moves up to 27 fans per trip from remote lots to stadium gates, with one driver, on a predictable schedule fans can count on. Published routes with designated stops run pregame, during, and postgame.

Where a 20-cart fleet needs 20 drivers, 4 FlexTrams handle the same volume with 4 drivers. Fewer vehicles means less pedestrian conflict, lower liability, and faster throughput — especially during postgame evacuation when continuous sweeps clear lots and give crowd management a controllable flow.

The math works at every level. An NFL team plays 8-10 home games per season. A Power Four school plays 6-8. At every game, the parking lot is the first impression and the last memory. FlexTram turns that weak link into an operational asset — and on non-event days, the system stores compactly with no dedicated lot and no idle fleet.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup (June-July) will put stadium last-mile transportation under a global spotlight. Every operational gap will be visible worldwide. By September, the standard fans and stakeholders expect will be higher. The teams that plan now will be ready. Learn more about how FlexTram handles stadium and arena operations year-round.

Common questions

How many golf carts does one FlexTram replace at a football stadium?

One FlexTram replaces 4-5 golf carts, carrying up to 27 fans per trip on a fixed loop. Most stadiums reduce their cart fleet by 70% or more while moving fans faster from remote lots to gates.

Can FlexTram handle post-game crowd evacuation at NFL and college stadiums?

Yes. FlexTram runs continuous post-game sweeps on fixed loops, clearing remote lots significantly faster than scattered golf cart fleets. The predictable route reduces pedestrian-vehicle conflict and gives crowd management a controllable flow when 60,000-plus fans exit simultaneously.

Is FlexTram ADA accessible for stadium game days?

ADA accessibility is standard on every FlexTram, every run. Accessible boarding and appropriate aisle widths are included with no special configuration or separate service required.

Can we rent FlexTram for a single football season or game-day schedule?

Yes. FlexTram offers single-event rentals, season-long leases, and multi-year contracts. Scale your fleet to your football schedule without a permanent commitment. The system stores compactly on non-event days.

How does the 2026 FIFA World Cup affect stadium transportation planning?

The FIFA World Cup (June-July 2026) will put stadium last-mile transportation under a global spotlight. Every operational gap in fan mobility will be visible worldwide, raising the standard fans and stakeholders expect when football season kicks off in September.

Kickoff is September 9. Let's talk before preseason.
