Planning notes for Dorking events
The A24 and A25 meet at Dorking, and the hill roads around Box Hill are narrow and steep. On a busy event day, getting an ambulance in and out needs planning. Medirek's pre-event work maps access points along routes and agrees how to evacuate a patient, including by air ambulance, if needed.
