Norton Retail Park - St James

Recommended Posts

Can't figure out how they are being allowed to reduce to single lane from 8.30 in a morning. Surely they should leave this until after 9? The build up to the Meadowhead roundabout just stackes up immediately is horrendous and it will surely get worse when the schools go back in a couple of weeks.

 

You can see them loitering at 8.25 every morning looking at their watches so that the cones can go in place at 8.30 on the dot!

 

Did notice on Friday morning that they started work before 8 in the central reservation without reducing to a single lane. They then just put the cones out at 8.30 and carried on working as before!

 

Sheffield city council highways department approved working from 8.30am due to traffic being much lighter during school term time. This allows the works to be completed much quicker reducing delays stretching over a longer period of time. Lane closures will stop during peak times from the 4th September when the kids go back to school.

lets hope this great shopping centre opens on time and I am sure it will be a great success and its badly needed in our area ,although the traffic could be a problem,one question dyche lane is narrow is that a exit or entrance?

Absolutely. It's so easy to make purchases from there without having to pay extra for click and collect, as with some stores and their customer service and returns policies are excellent too but I've lost count of the times I've had to drive across town to Kilner Way, or even to Chesterfield, for purchases.

 

I don't really understand the obsession with Argos but you do know they have a store inside Sainsburys at Archer Road, don't you?
