Business continuity advice

London 2012 has prepared practical advice for businesses:

  • Lloyds TSB Games time ready
    Lloyds TSB provide a downloadable document that provides useful information on how to benefit from London 2012 and how to overcome challenges the Games may bring.

We advise you to look at the race route maps with your employees and work out a route to work that isn’t affected by the races. You may want to consider whether staff can work from home or from other premises, if possible. Local bus services will be affected on the day so please check nearer the time at www.surreycc.gov.uk/buses.

If you or your staff can walk to work you will be able to use pavements along the route, with clearly designated pedestrian crossing points at regular intervals.
