The Olympic Torch in Taplow

A total of 8,000 torch-bearers will take the torch on its 70-day journey, which begins at Land's End on the 19th May. Current information is that on the 10th July this journey will eventually take the torch through Maidenhead and over the bridge to Taplow at the Mill Lane junction where it will then become a convoy (meaning it will be transported in a vehicle) and will travel to Eton Dorney Lake via an unpublished route. It's estimated that the torch will pass along the A4 around 11.00 am. So bag your place early.
