2014 Tour de France will start in Yorkshire and come to Sheffield

Recommended Posts

Surely this does not affect the whole of Oughtibridge, just the roads used for the race. Namely Haggstones Rd, Church St, and Jawbone Hill.

How did you manage when the roads mentioned above were recently all fully refurbished,Iam sure this took much longer than a day.

Well there is a couple of camp sites opening up in Oughtibridge I would think that access to them will be maintained.

Anyway what has the French ever done for us.

 

The Normans left us some nice buildings. And chips are thought to have originated in France.

As one of them is situated at the top of Jawbone Hill I wouldn't like to say about that. I imagine pedestrian access will be allowed though as lots of spectators will be on the hill

Regarding road closures etc, well the roads are closed for the marathon or half marathon once in 365 days. The roads are gonna be closed for the Tour once in 36,865 days,.!

Park your car at the Park and ride at the bottom of the Parkway, and catch the Tram to Meadowhall.

That's right , all main roads in and out of Oughtibridge including Langsett Road north so I doubt if the buses will be going through.

As for the refurbished roads they were done during the night.

Best to check whether the trams to Meadowhall will be running again by then. A 52 bus will take MB to Attercliffe and then either a tram or replacement bus will do the rest.

Trams will be running, details on the extra services were released a few weeks ago.
