Can someone please tell me how long it takes to get to M1 North from eccy road if you are leaving about 7.30 a.m? What is the best route to get there?

It depends on whether you are going M1 North, M1 South, or up the Parkway.

7:30 am or pm?

Yes that question is a bit too vague, and the answer could be anywhere in the range between 15 minutes and 1 hour.

And it really makes a difference wether you are going north or south because you would use Junction 34 for north and you would use Junction 29 south, because the M1 winds it's was around the outside of sheffield.

From Hunters Bar roundabout, to the M1 junction 33 ( end of parkway ) takes 13 minutes 21 seconds keeping to the speed limits in free flowing traffic.

Or head out towards meadowhall / attercliffe and join at J34. Might be better.. The parkway starts to snarl up at the end around 8am..

If it`s ecclesfield road, the m1 34 is about 2 mins away

Absolutely right, never use the parkway and J33 for the south part of sheffield. I cocked up the numbers in my last post.
