In Magherafelt, the venue for South Londonderry Orange lodges, there will be no parking along Queen Street and Castledawson Road is reserved for buses only. As such, double yellow line restrictions will be enforced at these locations. No Waiting road traffic cones will be in place.

Disabled parking will be available at suitable locations along the route on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking can be facilitated in the demonstration field for those who hold a suitable pass.
