Planning notes for Guildford events
Guildford's one-way system, the A3 and the A31 Hog's Back mean ambulance routes need thinking through before the day, especially for events that close town-centre streets. The Royal Surrey County Hospital is the local emergency department. By treating on site, Medirek aims to avoid unnecessary call-outs to hospitals like the Royal Surrey.
