CocaCola,Sponsor of the Olympic relay, A6,Oadby, Leicester
The Olympic torch relay convoy will include a fleet of branded vehicles from the event's presenting sponsors. Coca-Cola, Samsung and Lloyds will all have modified vehicles travelling ahead of the flame as it tours around the UK from Land's End to Stratford. They will play music and dish out memorabilia and information to crowds lining the relay route. The torch relay will last 70 days, with 66 evening celebrations, six island visits with about 8,000 people carrying the torch a total distance of about 8,000 miles (12,800 km), starting from Land's End in Cornwall. The torch had one day outside of the United Kingdom when it visited Dublin on 6 June. The relay will focus on national heritage sites, locations with sporting significance, key sporting events, schools registered with the Get Set School Network, green spaces and biodiversity, Live Sites (city locations with large screens), festivals and other events. The torch is escorted through the towns and communities by a team of specially trained officers from the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) known as the Torch Security Team (TST). These were chosen from the initial 644 applications and following an eight month selection process. Their primary role is to protect the Olympic and Paralympic Flames as well as the safety of the torchbearer carrying the flame.
