Hi,

Can anyone tell me where I can catch these buses from the city centre or Ecclesall Road and how often they run please?

Thanks!

Hi, try this link for timetables and journey planner for SYPTE

http://www.sypte.co.uk/welcome.html

50 & 30 run on Ecclesall between Limb Lane (Whirlow) and Hunters Bar. 50 operates at peak hours, the 30 is hourly.

They do NOT run on Ecclesall Rd between Hunters Bar & Town.

The 97A does not run along Ecclesall Rd at all, but along London Rd, Abbeydale Rd, Abbeydale Rd Sth, Totley Bk Rd, Furniss Av & Totley Bk Rd (in Totley Brook/Dore).
The 97A allegedly is every 15 minutes.

Thanks for the advice. I had been looking at the websites before posting,but with not knowing the area names of a lot of Sheffield they weren't much help.

With the London road one - can I get that from the town end of the road - near Chinese Fireworks at all?


Thanks

well it does cause i get it pratically everyday

Are they quite reliable?

ask Sugar, he/she seems to know everything about bus services in the whole of south yorkshire

erm sometimes but they do come a bit late sometimes. the come from dore at 10 to the hour and 20 past the hours. but i fink they have added some more eveing and morining times

Doesn't the 87 travel down Ecclesall Road?

I was told those 3 are the ones I can take to Dore -if that's wrong Im open to suggestion!

TBH, I was zooming down the streets when I saw the 87 mentioning "Ecclesall Road" (Via somewhere).

what bus services do you wan't to know about?i can give you some information but i am not sure that it will be accurate so you best off just looking on the website's above.

the 87 goes up greystones rd

I think where the confusion over the the 97/97a comes is that this service runs in a circle route when it reaches Ecclesfield and then becomes a 87 bus back into city via Wadsley bridge and Hillsborough.
The best site is the www.yorkshiretravel.co.uk where you have various option to find the bus service you require.The options being:
1) direct to timetable if you know service number
2) from your street to your destination street
3) via post code
It will even give the the option of a mini map
The planner covers all Yorkshire (n/s/w/e)
The service to Dore is 30/50 until July 31st then it will just be 30 as the current 50 journeys are being replaced with extra 30's!

don't forget they are changing the buses again from 1st august so be warned click on the links below to see the change details.
