- Start date
Because they have confirmed more details of the route. Previously they just confirmed the overnight stops.
"On July 16 it will pass through West Sussex with Arun District Council confirming North and South Bersted, Bognor, Aldingbourne and Arundel are included in the route.
It will then move through the Worthing and Adur areas before a celebration for up to 20,000 people is held at Hove Lawns, Hove.
The following day the torch will pass through Crowborough, Lewes, Eastbourne, Pevensey, Bexhill and St Leonards before an evening celebration in Hastings.
It will also stop at the Seven Sisters, the coastal landmark near Seaford.
The flame then continues through Hastings and passes through Rye before continuing its journey through Kent and around the country.
The street by street detail of the route will be confirmed next year."

If it's a weekend I imagine it will be on a replacement bus service

something clever
Won't confirm route until closer to the time apparently. Probably on security grounds.
