All Leeds road closures and bus diversions for Remembrance Sunday

Leeds will once again fall silent on Remembrance Sunday

Dozens of bus services are set to face diversions this weekend as Leeds prepares to pay its respects on Remembrance Sunday.

This year’s act of remembrance will once again be held at Victoria Gardens on Sunday, November 8.

At 10.50am, a procession of dignitaries will leave Leeds Civic Hall, behind a parade of ex-servicemen and women, veterans’ organisations, and current serving military personnel, who will lead a march from Rossington Street to the war memorial.

A number of bus services are set to be diverted as a result of the Remembrance parade.
