nParking Instructions
n
nOver the last two years we had major problems with late arriving runners parking on verges and the
nForestry Commission have asked us to ensure that this does not happen this year. Car parking in the
nNew Forest for events like this is a major concern for the Forestry Commission and we need your
nhelp and support to ensure the future of events like this.
n
nParking is very limited so please CAR SHARE WHEREVER POSSIBLE
n
nWe will be asking cars coming from the A31 to park in the Stoney Cross Plain/Stoney Cross car parks
n(see blue arrows) and cars coming from the Forest side to park in the Janesmoor Pond car parks (see
nyelow arrows). All parking areas are within a 6/8 minute walk (or a short warm up run) from the
nstart/finish areas. The start/finish area is indicated by the green arrow.
n
nPlease ensure that you follow the directions of our parking marshals at all times and park as
ninstructed.
n
nWe may take pictures of any vehicles/runners abandoning cars on the verges and supply these to
ntheir running clubs as we do not want to put the future of this race into question.
n
nWe are hoping that the having 3 major clubs as the drop out clubs for this event will assist with the
nparking concerns.
