OUR GREEN POLICIES<br />
For a few weeks of the year, the Seaside resort of Weston Super Mare, which is host to the Weston<br />
Beach Race, is transformed into one of the largest off road motorsport events in the United Kingdom,<br />
attracting upto 2,000 riders. The town of Weston Super Mare can double in size when the Weston<br />
Beach Race is held. We ask all Competitors to work with us in ensuring the future of this natural race<br />
circuit.<br />
NATURAL ENGLAND<br />
Weston Super Mare Beach and its surrounding habitat is protected by Natural England. <strong>RHL</strong> work<br />
closely with Natural England and the Environment agency in both its licensing to host the event on<br />
their natural asset and sustaining and protecng its future, both for the residents and visitors of<br />
Weston and also to safeguard this natural race circuit <strong>RHL</strong> and its Competors have the opportunity<br />
to race on.<br />
SAND MOVEMENT & REGENERATION<br />
Part of <strong>RHL</strong>’s work with North Somerset Council is restoring the sand levels of the Beach at Weston<br />
Super Mare, which gets eroded away during the year.<br />
<strong>RHL</strong> work closely with North Somerset Council, with re distribution of the sand along the Bay, whilst<br />
ensuring not only during the build of the race circuit, but during and on breakdown the impact on<br />
the balance of the sediment across the bay, has a non significant impact on the natural environment<br />
of the race circuit.<br />
The Weston Beach Race is part of the Weston Bay Beach and Dune Management Plan and we are<br />
proud to be able to work with the local Council in this very important environmental and<br />
maintenance plan, of the historic beach and surrounding areas.<br />
The scale of the event is such that it is easy to forget, for the rest of the year, the beach and its lawns<br />
and promenade are home to holiday makers, joggers, dog walkers, donkey rides and all the activities<br />
naturally enjoyed within a seaside town.<br />
Weston Super Mare Beach and its surrounding habitat is protected by Natural England.<br />
