A Note from OTT regarding potential traffic hassles this weekend:

We're hopeful it won't affect us too badly, but there are warnings of increased traffic around Donington Park this weekend due to an event at the race circuit, so do allow plenty of time. There are also some traffic restrictions during Sunday which will definitely affect bands travelling to and from the site and anyone coming for the afternoon/evening.

The Donington campsite closes at 1pm Monday, so traffic's likely to be heavier than usual on Monday morning too. From 2.30pm-7.30pm on Sunday, Melbourne Road will be one way, eastbound-only, from Slade Lane (that's the lane almost opposite the entrance to Park Farmhouse) down to the A453 junction at Walton Hill. So any traffic leaving OTT will be able to turn left, but anyone trying to get to OTT will be diverted via Breedon and Wilson, to come back up Slade Lane eventually. Also, with 'timings as required by traffic flow' there'll be no right turn for traffic coming up from Castle Donington at the junction of the A453 and Castle Donington Road (Hilltop). Traffic wishing to travel west towards OTT along the A453 from this point will first be diverted east to the DHL roundabout to rejoin the southbound carriageway.
