2013 Hazards Off on festival and event sites campaign logo

DC Site Services is proud to be supporting the 2013 Hazards Off (HAZOFF) on festival and event sites campaign!

The HAZOFF campaign is working to stop the common policy of site vehicles turning their hazard lights on when driving on event sites.

The idea behind the campaign is that vehicles driving around on event sites with their hazard lights on is counterproductive and potentially dangerous. With hazards flashing vehicles cannot indicate to advise other vehicles and pedestrians in which direction they will be heading next. Site vehicles also often forget to then cancel their hazards when leaving the event site and driving on public highways.

We will be briefing all of our event staff in 2013 that they should not be driving onsite with their hazards flashing and that if they see a vehicle doing so it should be advised to stop!

I wanted to write personally to say a huge thank you to you and your brilliant team for all your hard work to enable to deliver, in such a short space of time, a wonderful Royal Windsor Horse Show.

When we started the planning, we honestly had no idea whether we could or could not run and had so many changes it must have made it almost impossible for your team – however as always they adapted and overcame the many hurdles that we presented, with a smile and a complete can do attitude and many people are saying that it was one of the best show’s that they have ever been to.

Everybody I have spoken to has said how fantastic the cleaning was and that the loos were immaculate, and the showground looked as good on the last day as it did on the first day – which is exactly what any organiser strives to achieve. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everything was delivered with a smile. Your cleaners were tremendous once again. Even with the date change and the added bonus (!) of COVID everything was delivered on time.
