Thatcham Remembrance Parade 2017

Thatcham’s annual Remembrance Sunday Parade, organised by Thatcham Town Council, will take place on Sunday 12th November 2017.

Thatcham’s War Memorial is located adjacent to the main A4 road near the junctions with Brownsfield Road and Green Lane. The A4 will be closed between Park Lane and the Catholic Church from 10.30am until 12noon with through traffic being diverted to the north of the town via Tull Way and Floral Way*. Access to the shops at Crownmead will be maintained via Green Lane. Local buses including the Jet Black 1 service will be diverted away from The Broadway and the A4 during the Parade.

The parade will start from the Kingsland Centre car park and there will be a rolling road closure through The Broadway and High Street. After the service at the War Memorial the parade will continue to St Mary’s Church via the High Street and The Broadway. These two rolling road closures will each last for approximately 10 minutes and drivers are being encouraged to use The Moors and Lower Way during these times.

*Thatcham Town Council has been assured that the road closure on Heath Lane will be lifted on Sunday 12th November to allow this route to be used.
