Safety

Orienteering is an adventure sport and participants are taking part at your own risk.  A thorough risk assessment has been conducted by the Organiser.

Roads that can be crossed by competitors have 20mph or 30mph speed limits.  It is your responsibility to cross them safely.  Some can be reasonably busy and orienteers may wish to use pedestrianised crossings (zebra crossings and push button pelican crossings) of which there are several but not marked on the map.

The town centre is likely to be busy with shoppers and at the pavement cafes. Please be sensitive to the possibility of others (competitors or members of the public) coming the other way round corners and take them wide. Please show respect to residents and other road users. 

Paved areas (particularly cobbles) may be slippery when wet.
