Bromley parkrun

By bus The 61, 208, 261, 320, 358 all pass the Bromley Common A21 entrance to Norman Park. Alternatively the following buses pass the Hayes Lane entrance to the park. 119, 146 and the 314.
By train The nearest station to the ground is Bromley South which is serviced by trains from London Victoria. There are also two services an hour from London Blackfriars. If your train from London goes via East Croydon it may be easier to get off there and catch the 119 bus to the ground (approximate journey time: 40 minutes)

Norman Park is about a 25 minute walk from Bromley South station.

From the M25 Motorway Exit the M25 at Junction 4, London (SE) and Bromley. Stay on the A21 for approximately 7 miles. At Bromley College of Further Education continue on the A21 for a further quarter of a mile, then turn left into Hook Farm Road BR2 9SX. It is a small road and easy to miss, but has a speed camera at its entrance.
Not using the M25 Motorway Hayes Lane, BR2 9EJ is situated between the A21 London to Hastings Road and the A232 Croydon to Orpington Road. The entrance to Norman Park is opposite Mead Way at a mini roundabout. Although larger, the Hayes Lane car park can get busy. There is a 7ft width barrier from the A21 road in Hayes Lane so large vehicles/coaches should not approach from this direction. If travelling from the east, use the Hook Farm Road BR2 9SX entrance off the A21 Bromley Common.

When parking in either car park, please only park in marked spaces and do not park on the verge, blocking the gates or in the yellow boxes which need to be kept clear for vehicle emergency access. Additional car parking can be found on local roads. Please allow time to park appropriately. If driving plan to arrive by 8.30am in order to find a parking space and walk to the start line

Bromley parkrun is a fun, free event organised by volunteers for the benefit of everyone. We wish to make the event as safe as possible, so participants, spectators and helpers are asked to take care about the following:

• Please be considerate to the park and other park users at all times.
• Children under the age of eleven must be accompanied (within arm's reach) throughout the event by a parent, guardian or appropriate adult of the parent's choice.
• Please arrive by foot, by pedal-power or by public transport if you can - your efforts help to reduce our impact on the park and the planet.
• We invite everyone to consider volunteering at parkrun. Your support helps your parkrun events remain sustainable and free for all in your community, and it’s also a wonderful way to improve your own health and happiness. Please visit the volunteer page for more information.
• Take care near roads and car parks – some vehicles drive very quickly. Please congregate away from the cars and be careful in particular if you have children. If you’re driving to the event, please drive carefully.
• Take care on uneven surfaces – whether on grass or on tarmac. Watch out for cyclists, other participants, pedestrians, children, dogs, wildlife, park animals, vehicles, park maintenance work, falling branches, bollards, posts and other obstacles around the course.
• Please ensure that you are fit enough to walk, jog, run 5k (3.1 miles) with us.
• If you see someone with a serious problem, please stop to help them out and get help as soon as possible.
• If you’re watching, keep clear of participants on the course, and look after any children and dogs you may have with you.
• It is not permitted to run with a pushchair and a dog at the same time.
• Lyme Disease is a bacterial infection spread to humans by infected ticks. Consider protecting yourself by wearing repellent when at parkrun events in grassy or wooded areas. See lymediseaseuk.com for further details.
• You are welcome to take part with one dog by your side, within reach at all times, on a short, handheld, non-extendable lead. The use of waist harnesses is prohibited. Please also see this Support Site entry for further details about parkrunning with dogs.
• parkrunners pushing buggies are welcome, but please take care of others around you and do your best to start at an appropriate place in the field for your pace.

We hope these tips help to ensure that Bromley parkrun is fun and safe for everyone.
