Safety Design & Procedures
The Park and its tracks have been designed to allow both small motor bikes and large motor bikes to operate within close proximity of each other whilst maintaining strict safety standards.
The Park is not a motocross track or a dedicated racing track and should not be treated as such.
The Park is designed for all motorcycle enthusiasts to enjoy a good day out riding within the confines of a safe environment.
To enable the safe use of the riding areas, motor bikes have separate entry and exit points to the tracks and are signposted, thus reducing the risk of collision.
Entry to the Riding Ground
- All riders and visitors must attend the reception area prior to entering the Park.
- All riders and visitors will be required to read and sign the Safety Rules and Rider Waiver before being permitted to enter the Park.
- Riders will not be permitted entry to the Park until they have signed these documents.
- All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
- All guardians will be required to sign the quardian section of the Rider Waiver before the child is permited to enter the Park.
- A Staff Member from West Moto Park will go through the 'Visitor Guide' with you.
- Emergency procedures will be explained to all riders and visitors prior to entering the Park.
Staffing
- Safety riders will circulate the park at regular intervals in order to patrol for any dangerous behaviour or accidents.
- A staff member will be trained as first-aid officer, carry a first-aid kit and be on duty at all times the riding areas are open.
- Senior staff are trained at a level to meet Occupational Health and Safety Standards, one of which will be present at the Park at all times during riding hours.
Safety Consultant
In order to ensure the safety and protection of both the riders and our employees the management at Western Motorcycle Parks liaise with a safety consultant to provide a number of services including:
- The creation of safety procedures for the Park.
- The management of safety documentation, evaluation and quality improvement of safety procedures.
- Ongoing education of safety procedures for all Park employees.
- First aid training for Park employees in conjunction with the St. John’s Ambulance Service.
- Maintenance of Park safety equipment assisting in the purchasing of modern and the most up to date equipment to maintain the Park to the highest standards available.
- Liaising with the Wyalkatchem Hospital and the local St. John’s Ambulance Service on issues pertaining to medical safety within the Park.
- Providing Park staff with the latest evidence based research on the management of motorcycle incidents and the implementation of changes in Park safety regulations to meet new standards.
Safety Measures
We have implemented a number of safety measures at the Park to ensure that any injuries sustained at the Park are dealt with swiftly and with the proper care including:
- The construction of a helicopter pad adjacent to the first aid room to enable the immediate rescue of severely injured patients.
- A fully stocked first aid room.
- All incidents involving injury to riders or Park staff will be investigated using the RECAR method. This system identifies the cause of the accident, evaluates safety procedures and makes recommendations for improvement on how to implement changes to procedures thus ensuring continuous safety improvements at the Park.
If you have any queries with regard to any safety issues at the Park, including the appropriate safety gear or any issues on the tracks which you believe may pose a safety risk, please contact West Moto Park staff immediately so that we may assist you with your queries.
