THE popular annual Lymm Historic Transport Day makes its return this weekend.
The event, which started in 2013, will showcase a wide range of vehicles while raising money for a number of charities.
More than 500 vehicles are due to take part on land and on water – so there is a lot to look forward to this Sunday.
We have put together a guide of what to look out for here.
To ensure the event can proceed safely, a number of road closures have been arranged in Lymm.
No vehicle, except those taking part in the event and emergency services, can travel on the below streets between 10am and 11.30am on Sunday, June 23.
