	==Access==		==Access==
	No vehicles are allowed into the IC area ~~after 18:00 on Friday as~~ the game ~~has started by this point~~. The map shows two sets of roads, ~~those~~ marked in ~~grey~~ are ~~open after~~ time-in~~, the~~ roads marked in ~~brown are only open before and after the event. All the~~ grey ~~roads~~ will remain open throughout the event, except for the north road round the top of the site. This will be closed from 09:30 to 15:00 on Saturday and Sunday to ~~minimise disruption~~ to the ~~game. The only traffic allowed during those hours will be players~~ with ~~accessibility needs~~ or an ~~emergency~~. If you are camping in the north pitch and park field and you know you'll want to come and go during those hours then ~~please move~~ your vehicle ~~to the appropriate car park on the south side of the site~~.		If you are coming by car, please update your vehicle registration and contact number on your PD account and display your PID in your windscreen. The gate team have paper slips available for everyone who needs one to write your PID on.

			There is a 10mph speed limit in place all across the site. You must reduce your speed to 10mph or less as soon as you turn off the road. Use indicators as normal to indicate direction of travel on site, do not use hazard lights.

			There are roads that go through the out-of-character camp, through Anvil and back. Vehicles are allowed to leave the road provided the conditions are acceptable, please check with a member of crew for further details when you are on site. No vehicles are allowed into the IC area while the game is running. The map shows two sets of roads, the roads marked in brown are only available outside the hours of time-in.

			The roads marked in grey will remain open throughout the event, except for the north road round the top of the site. This will be closed from 09:30 to 15:00 on Saturday and Sunday due to heavy player pedestrian traffic near the Sentinel Gate at this time. If you require emergency access, speak to a member of the crew with a radio, or go to GOD, who will arrange an official escort for you and your vehicle. If you are camping in the north pitch and park field and you know you'll want to come and go during those hours then you must park your vehicle elsewhere.

	==Drop Off Point==		==Drop Off Point==
	We have created a vehicle drop-off point near the main entrance to the site. This is purely for vehicles that are not driving onto the site, but wish to park as close to the entrance as possible so that they can unload from here. You must move your vehicle from the drop-off point to the main parking areas once you have finished unloading your vehicle.

You must move your vehicle from the drop-off point to the main parking areas once you have finished unloading your vehicle.

			==Pitch and Park==
			There are three blue pitch and park camps spread around the site for players to use. You can pitch your OOC tent and park your car next to it in any of these three camps. You must make sure you do not block other vehicles or tents.

			To improve safety and security, please try your best to form straight rows when pitching and parking in designated OC areas. The traffic team will be on hand to assist at the beginning of the event. If you have any questions about where to pitch your tent or park your vehicle, please speak to the traffic team who can direct you.

			==Accessibility==
			There are areas set aside for players with additional accessibility needs dotted around the site. These are shown in pink on the map. Anyone who needs to pitch and park in these areas is welcome to do so, but make sure you do not block in other vehicles or tents. There is also space just for parking for those who require it. We will provide additional support available where possible - email us at accessibility@profounddecisions.co.uk to discuss what arrangements will suit you best.

			The toilet facilities that include a disabled toilet unit are marked with a wheelchair symbol. There is a disabled shower unit with the other showers near GOD.

			We aim to make our events as accessible as possible. During events, speak to GOD or the Traffic team in high vis clothing if you have any queries.

	==Toilets==		==Toilets==
	Toilet facilities are marked on the map with a T symbol. There are four trailer blocks in the field ~~wth~~ GOD, caterers and traders, and two additional trailer blocks near Power East, West and South and also next to the Area. In addition there are free standing toilet cubicles in the main field and in additional locations around the site. We are limited on where we can put toilets, since we need ~~to get equipment to them~~ to service them~~, but~~ we have spread them evenly across the site. All the larger blocks of toilet and hygiene facilities that are located around the site are split into male, female, and gender-neutral toilets. All our participants are entitled to use the facilities that they feel most comfortable using. You must not challenge other participants when using the facilities.

	~~==Accessibility Camps==~~		There is a long stay car park for players who won't need their vehicle during the event. Please park your car here if you won't be using it during the event.
	~~At the front of each OOC camp~~ is ~~an area set aside~~ for players ~~with additional accessibility needs. These are shown in pink on~~ the ~~map~~. ~~Anyone who needs to pitch and~~ park ~~in this location is welcome to do so. Please let the crew know~~ if you ~~need help finding~~ the ~~area you need when arrive on site~~.

	~~There~~ are ~~six disabled toilet facilities~~, ~~one~~ in ~~each~~ of the ~~toilet facilities marked with a wheelchair symbol~~.		Players are welcome to sleep in their cars in pitch and park if they prefer to, but don't sleep in your car in either of the two dedicated car parks as this makes more work for our hard working security team.

	==~~Parking~~==		==Standpipes==
	There ~~are two areas of~~ the site ~~set aside just for parking~~. ~~If you are not staying~~ on ~~site at night,~~ the ~~best car park~~ to ~~use is~~ the ~~short stay car park.

Players are welcome to sleep in their cars in pitch~~ and ~~park if they prefer to, but don't sleep in your car in the long stay car park as this makes more work for our hard working security team~~.		There will be standpipes distributed around the site. We’re still waiting on the final location of where they have been installed. If we do manage to get that information to the office before the event then we’ll update the map accordingly and let people know.

The map shows two sets of roads, those marked in grey are open after time-in, the roads marked in brown are only open before and after the event. All the grey roads will remain open throughout the event, except for the north road round the top of the site. This will be closed from 09:30 to 15:00 on Saturday and Sunday to minimise disruption to the game. The only traffic allowed during those hours will be players with accessibility needs or an emergency. If you are camping in the north pitch and park field and you know you'll want to come and go during those hours then please move your vehicle to the appropriate car park on the south side of the site.

We are limited on where we can put toilets, since we need to get equipment to them to service them, but we have spread them evenly across the site. All the larger blocks of toilet and hygiene facilities that are located around the site are split into male, female, and gender-neutral toilets. All our participants are entitled to use the facilities that they feel most comfortable using. You must not challenge other participants when using the facilities.

	~~The thin black lines~~ are ~~roads~~ and the ~~thin green lines are hedges~~. ~~We will update the map~~ in ~~the coming weeks with additional details like the location~~ of ~~toilet blocks, gates, and key in-character locations like the Hub and so forth. We'll release~~ these ~~as soon as they are finalised~~.		==Pitch and Park==
			There are three blue pitch and park camps spread around the site for players to use. You can pitch your OOC tent and park your car next to it in any of these three camps.

	==Accessibility Camps==		==Accessibility Camps==
	~~The areas marked with a wheelchair are~~ the ~~out-~~of~~-character camps that are~~ for ~~use by participants~~ with additional accessibility needs. Please let the crew know if you need ~~to camp or park here~~. ~~<!--~~There are ~~five~~ disabled toilet facilities~~, one near Monster, one near the showers, one near the drop-off point~~, one in ~~the in-character area in~~ the toilet ~~blocks opposite Mhorish and one in the accessibility camp near Wintermark.-->~~		At the front of each OOC camp is an area set aside for players with additional accessibility needs. These are shown in pink on the map. Please let the crew know if you need help finding the area you need when arrive on site. There are six disabled toilet facilities, one in each of the toilet facilities marked with a wheelchair symbol.

	~~==Drop Off Point==~~
	~~No vehicles are allowed onto the IC area after 18:00 on Friday as the game has started by this point. We have created~~ a vehicle drop-off point near the main entrance to the League and Navarr camp. This is purely for vehicles that are not driving onto the site, but wish to park as close to the entrance as possible so that they can unload from here. You must move your vehicle from the drop-off point to the main camping/parking area once you have finished unloading your vehicle.
