Safety Notes
As with any street orienteering you are required to cross roads and you are asked to take due care and attention at all times. The main roads are marked out of bounds and must only be crossed at marked pedestrian crossings or underpasses.
Two rivers run through the centre of Chelmsford. These must only be crossed using the mapped bridges.
High visibility clothing is strongly recommended.
Roads, footpaths and cycleways will be in use by members of the public. Please treat them with respect. Look out for cyclists who are likely to be moving faster than you.
