Play Streets – Playing out
Play Streets – SCC Guidance for organising a Playing Out session
Welcome to our guidance pack for event organisers.
We welcome and encourage high quality events throughout the year ranging from large festivals and sporting events to small community events.
It is important that events are carefully planned to minimise traffic congestion and risks to safety on the highway.
The Pack will help event organisers with all aspects of their event-planning and help to identify potential traffic problems and how to avoid them. It advises event organisers how to comply with legislation and good practice to create a safe environment for everyone involved, from volunteers to people attending.
A number of documents and links are available in this pack to help guide you through the process of organising your event.
