Rotary Dragon Boat Challenge

Team Information

PARKING.

TO ENSURE THAT TEAM MEMBERS AND VISITORS DO NOT FALL FOUL OF LOCAL AUTHORITY PARKING ENFORCEMENT PLEASE NOTE:-

  1. Each team will be issued with 1 parking permit prior to the event, which must be prominently displayed in the windscreen of the team vehicle AT ALL TIMES. These permits will allow free parking, after unloading equipment at Team Bases, in the designated parking areas on the lakeside at Pugneys.
  2. To ensure availability, there will be a reserved parking area for team vehicles, but the permit will apply in all designated parking areas.
  3. FREE PARKING for all other vehicles bringing team members and spectators will be available, and well signposted, in a field off Asdale Road directly opposite Pugneys.
  4. ALL VEHICLES, with the exception of 1 above, who choose to park within Pugneys, must display a valid ticket purchased from the official parking machines on site.

Warning.  Failure to display a valid ticket, whether issued free or purchased at the ticket machines, will almost certainly result in the issue of a fixed penalty notice by the parking warden
