whitehorses Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Hi, navigation question. If it’s possible I need to get from CV East to Red Gate on Tuesday evening. Any ideas how I might go about this? Looks too far/annoying to walk. But beyond that I’m stumped... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will you have a Staff wristband, or a Public one? If it's Staff, what type? If it's Public, and some types of Staff, you can't officially get to Red Gate on foot at all.

whitehorses Posted June 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 @incidentI have a public ticket, but I am going on site for the evening. Well if i can get there I am. Thanks for the intel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incident Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 That's a tough ask - the direct route would be through the site, but if that's not a runner then you're looking at public roads - up blue route then cut across to pilton village, leave the village on the A361 and enter red gate from the road. As I say, it's very much not an approved pedestrian route so you'd need to be seriously careful doing that. There's likely to be some heavy traffic and from what I remember most of it doesn't have pavements. The other thing you could try and do - and would be a lot shorter and safer - is to basically follow the fence line around the site. You'll encounter much less traffic (mostly site buggies), but you'll need to explain yourself to security probably about 10-15 times and it's likely one of them redirects you onto the public roads. If you're gong to Red Gate, them I'm assuming your contact is collecting you in a vehicle and driving you on site - in which case is there any chance they could do Blue Gate instead? It should be nearly or equally as viable for them, and would be a relative piece of piss for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehorses Posted June 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Yeah both those sound quite annoying! I did wonder about following the fence though, but figured I’d get hassled. And yes getting picked up and driven in! I think it’s a bus that’s picking me up at Red Gate and taking me in... They’ve been sorting it for a week or so and this is the best they’ve conjured up so I guess Blue is out the question. Don’t want to cause more trouble so may just leave it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
