Health and Safety Instructions

A copy of the Health and Safety Manual is available in the Steam Rally Organisers Control Tent near the entrance to the arena.

In the case of an emergency there are 5 Gates for evacuation purposes of which Gates 1 (Hereford Rd), 2 (Park Rd), 4 (Park Avenue - Classic Car entrance) and 5 (Park Avenue) are designated vehicle access points.

In accordance with Gwent Fire Brigade guidelines, caravans and tents parked on the site will require a minimum distance of 1.5 metres fire break space and 3.1 metres aisle space for access of emergency vehicles. The tarmac pathway/road adjacent to Park Lane (at rear of Stationary Engines) is for emergency vehicles only. Although during the Rally fire extinguishers will be available at locations around Bailey Park, we can not guarantee they are appropriate for your specific risks or that they will be located in a position close to you. It is therefore the responsibility of each exhibitor, trade stand, caterer and overnight camper to provide their own appropriate well maintained Fire extinguishing equipment for all the Fire risks they may present. During Rally preparation days, fire extinguishers will be available at the Rotary control Tent sited approx 75 metres from the main gate (Gate 1) near to the football Goal posts. During the days of Steam Rally. Fire Extinguishers will be available at each corner of the Park. These will be signposted as Fire Points. Our Steam Rally utility vehicle will also be carrying a Fire Extinguisher on board. During this period the Fire Service may also be in attendance on site, but this cannot be guaranteed as they may be called away at any time and so should not be relied on. St. John Ambulance will be in attendance during the Rally. During the Rally preparation, the point of contact for any accidents will be the Marshal at the Hereford Road (main vehicle entry) gate. The nearest hospital to Bailey Park with an Accident and Emergency Department (24 hour cover) is Nevill Hall Hospital, Brecon Road, Abergavenny, Telephone 01873 732732. The Police will be available on an emergency call out basis. The number to ring is 999.

Every accident must be reported in the Accident Book which will be with the Health & Safety Manual situated in the Steam Rally Control Tent, see point 1.

Unguarded open fires will not be allowed on site but guarded barbeques and gas cookers are acceptable if they are well maintained and used with due care and attention (see also section 4) Any use of vehicles on site must be with considerable caution as the venue is designated a pedestrian area and the speed limit of 5 mph is mandatory.

When the public is present in Bailey Park there must be no movement of vehicles except under the control of the Rally Stewards or Marshalls who may be identified by yellow tabards.

A copy of the Public Liability Insurance Certificate in the Health & Safety Manual is available for inspection in the Steam Rally Control Tent, see point 1.
