Olympic torch latest: Orford hub closed today

This article is brought to you by our exclusive subscriber partnership with our sister title USA Today, and has been written by our American colleagues. It does not necessarily reflect the view of The Herald.

ALL facilities and services at Orford Jubilee Neighbourhood Hub will not be open to the public until 5pm today while the torch relay passes through the town.

Organisers said this is due to safety and security reasons as 5,000 school children visit the site alongside large numbers of public spectators.

The closure includes pools, gym, library, learning rooms and health clinics/ GP surgeries.

There is no public parking at the site but limited disabled parking is available at the carpark next to the Orford Park community cabin just off Alder Lane.
