"For those taking part in the convoy, please make sure you stick together and follow the guidance of the traffic management team and Marshalls.

"Please remember they are here helping us with this event for free, and just like all of us, they are taking the time from their time off to ensure we have a safe enjoyable convoy for George, so please ensure that you follow any instructions that they give you.

“The convoy will be heading from Heysham, down Heysham Road and then on to the prom, ending at Happy Mount Park.

“This convoy will have a lot of HGV’s, so we are following the route that will create the least resistance, as advised.

“From Happy Mount Park, everyone in the convoy is free to disperse how they see fit.

"The safest way would be to continue on the Coastal road and head towards the M6 or The Bay Gateway.
