London 2012 Olympic Torch Relay

The Olympic Flame is coming to Worthing and Lancing on Monday 16 July 2012 before going onto Brighton and Hove for the evening celebration and overnight stop.

People will be able to line the streets of Worthing and Lancing to welcome and share the excitement of the Olympic Torch Relay coming through and celebrate the achievements of the inspirational Torchbearers carrying the Flame in their community.

The Torch will arrive in Worthing at 4.25pm at the top the A24 Broadwater Street West, travelling down Chapel Road, South Street, along Marine Parade into The Steyne and along the A259 Brighton Road. It will reach Lancing at 5.16pm and continue to travel along the Brighton Road up into South Street and to the top of Grinstead Lane. (Note - Whilst travelling along these named streets it will be in ‘Torchbearing’ mode however once it is travelling outside of these route details it will be travelling in ‘Convoy’ mode which means the Torch cannot be seen by anyone.)
