　　【Abstract】A clear, concise, and comprehensive transportation planning for major sports events ensures the success of sports events. Such planning should integrate the current and future urban transportation system, transportation network system, transportation operation system, involved institutions and user groups, and seek a balance between event transportation and urban transportation. Taking the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics Games and the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games as examples, this paper summarizes the framework of general transportation planning for major sports events, and discusses the contents, key points, and challenges of the planning. The paper points out that the general transportation planning of major sports events should include stable security policies, accurate travel demand forecasting, reasonable transportation terminals layout, and multi-scenarios scheme. The planning should comprehensively consider the service utilization during the events and post-events, which can not only meet the event demands but also leave sustainable legacies after the events.
