ORGANISERS of Walton's Remembrance Day Parade have changed the route of the procession.
The parade will not be marching down the High Street on its way to the remembrance service this Sunday (November 9).
Instead the outward-bound parade will start at Saville Street car park, go to Old Pier Street, turn left towards Walton Road and end at Walton Memorial Gardens.

The march will begin from the car park at 10.10am, arrive at the memorial gardens at 10.30am and the service will start at 10.45am.
A spokesperson for the event said: "For those unable to complete the full route, you may join the parade at Old Pier Street, approximately halfway along the approved route.
"This provides a shorter route while remaining fully compliant with the protected road closure zone.
"The service will include a two-minute silence and will end just before midday.
"We look forward to seeing you there."
The return parade will depart from the Walton Memorial Gardens at 12noon and go down Walton Road, the High Street and Saville Street.
There will be several rolling road closures in place supported by volunteers.
