Fire Alarms

Fire alarms at Adastral Park emit a contunous tone. If you are in a building and the fire alarm sounds, you must make your way to the nearest fire exit and report to the senior officer point at the Emergency Assembly Point (see map) or assemble with your host. Once you are at the assembly point, you will be given further instructions.

Fire alarms in all buildings are tested once a week for about 10 seconds. If the alarm sounds continuously, you must evacuate the building.
