1 Scope
This Technical Report gives characteristics generally applicable to service areas.
This Technical Report also gives a questionnaire where CEN members give their contributions and
information on the national situation.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this Technical Report, the following definition applies.
2.1
service area
space or spaces with controlled access between the external area and the viewing area (see Figure 1)
3 Relationship between external area and service area
3.1 Choice of spectator facilities site
When selecting a suitable location, any planning or building developments in the neighbourhood of the
prospective grounds should be assessed. It may be that neighbouring grounds are to be used for purposes
which might constitute a nuisance to the spectator facility (e.g. dirt, pollution, noise caused by traffic or
industry) or alternatively that the spectator facilities itself might be the nuisance factor (e.g. levels of noise for
people living in the neighbourhood from sports or from spectator crowds at events, including arrivals and
departures, or the light from the illumination of the sports ground). A study should be made, if necessary, of
whether and which form of protective measures can be taken to prevent such mutual disturbances and at
what cost.
3.2 Infrastructure
Both public and private transports systems should be located and dimensioned so that the flow of spectators
is able to pass through the entrance and exit/gates of the facility without disruption to other forms of transport
and so that sufficient space is available for persons awaiting the next departure. The lanes of the roads
should not be obstructed.
Access to public transport:
 Rail;
 taxis;
 bus;
 connection to airport;
 connection to port;
 connection to railway station.
Access to private transport:
 vip;

4 Organisation of service area (See A.10)

4.1 Facilities for activity area participants
These facilities comprise the activity area and rooms, equipment rooms, changing, training rooms, sanitary
facilities, first-aid room, drug testing room, call room (waiting room), parking spaces for cars, buses and

5 Characteristics
Service area shall be fully accessible to people with special needs.
The service area is constituted by:
5.1 External perimeter barrier with turnstiles and exit gates
Passageways, indoor or outdoor, to enter to the service area or to exit from it, within the perimeter limit or
barrier of the spectator facilities. This will include entry point and turnstiles for ingress (see A.1), exit doors or
gates for exit (see A.2), in order to provide a secure separation between external area and services area.
Turnstile for access or exits of facilities are not suitable for persons with special needs. In order to allow free
access and ingress for those persons, barrier free installations shall be installed additionally.
5.2 Passageways
The first element of the exit route from the spectator accommodation should be no wider than any subsequent
element (see A.3).
The passageways can be as follows:
 on one level (see A.4);
 on and inclined plane (see A.5) (ramps);
 on stairs (see A.6);
 on elevators and escalators.
5.3 Toilet
Unless otherwise specified by National legislation or other guidance, a general criteria for sanitary
accommodation (toilets) is as follows:
 the numerical proportion of men to women spectator is subject to the type of event being staged.
Whereas for most sports and non-sporting events (open air concerts) one can assume a ratio of 1:1. For
some sports like football, a ratio of 3:1 (men: women) can be expected. This requirement can be met by
providing a flexible arrangement for part of the sanitary unit which allows for an alternative use for men or
women, provided that the building conditions are suitable for such. Facilities designed for larger spectator
crowds should cater for this.
The number of toilet facilities is listed in Table 1 below and a rate of 1 toilet for every 10 disabled spectators is
needed (see A.7).
A reasonable distance between any position from the viewing are and the nearest toilet should be considered

For men:

Urinals 20 26

5.4 First aid
Unless otherwise specified one first-aid station, should be provided for every 5,000 to 10,000 (see A.8)
spectators.
5.5 Kiosks for food, drink and souvenirs
Each spectator block should be furnished with a kiosk (4 to 8 counter spaces) and with rooms storing goods
and empties. Depending on the type of supply, one counter space is calculated every 300 to 600 spectators
(see A.9).
For goods from vendors, appropriate storage room should be provided based on a calculation of 1 vendor for
every 500 to 1.000 spectators.
Kiosks may also be supplemented by restaurants, as required.
5.6 VIP area
This area should be considered. Size, number and layout should be appropriate to circumstances.
5.7 Ticket sales
A ticket office(s) should be provided for spectators in the external area near to service area. Counters should
be supplied for the sale of advance tickets for future events.

Annex A
(informative)

National Situation of spectator service area characteristics applicable in
certain European Countries
QUESTIONNAIRE, ANSWER FROM THE COUNTRIES
A.1 Specify entry control requirements and any special requirement for the external perimeter barrier in your
country
(How many people per hour? Maximum height? Openings? Security controls?)
COUNTRY ANSWER
AUSTRIA Up to 30 spectators one exit (min. 1,00 m width) direct to an open area.
Up to 100 spectators one exit (min. 1,20 m) direct to an open area and an emergency
exit.
More than 100 spectators minimum two exits direct to an open area and an emergency
exit.
Witdh:  120 spectators – min. 1,20 m
       121-180 spectators – min. 1,40 m
       181-240 spectators – min. 1,80 m
       241-300 spectators – min. 2,20 m (max width of staircases)

Height:  min. 2,20 m
FRANCE
− No car in a large perimeter of the stadium.
− Division of ways outdoor for groups of supporters.
− Division of entry categories and parking areas (supporters, VIP, medias…)
− Division between the two groups of supporters (entrances, parking areas, blocks)
ITALY Fence height min 2,5 m;
1 entrance each 1.500 spectators;
1 turnstile each 750 spectators;
60 cm max large
SPAIN No regulation, no specific requirements
UNITED KINGDOM None other than appropriate to circumstances.
All spectators should be accurately counted and their number controlled to ensure that
overcrowding does not occur.
Factors that affect the entry capacity. The rate at which people can pass through each
turnstile will vary according to a number of local factors. The rates of entry should there
fore be measured at least once a year and recorded.
The main factors affecting the rate of entry are:
1. The number and dispersal of turnstiles/entry points
2. The adequacy of directional information and communications
