Bargepole23 Â Â 337 #1 Posted June 21, 2015 Big cycling event in Sheffield on 5th July. Â Ecclesall Road closed all day, plus other roads in town I guess.

Jeffrey Shaw   83 #4 Posted June 30, 2015 (edited) Big cycling event in Sheffield on 5th July. Ecclesall Road closed all day, plus other roads in town I guess. Yes. Ecclesall Road will be badly affected from 0945hrs to 1545hrs. BUSES (outbound from City): SVC 70 (Dore): as usual to top of Brocco Bank, then Endcliffe Vale Road etc. Emerges at Rustlings Road, turning right up Ecclesall Road. ALL OTHERS usually serving Ecclesall Road: will run from Moorfoot via London Road, Cemetery Road, Psalter Lane. emerge at Banner Cross then forwards to Ecclesall Road.

Sneakerfreak   10 #10 Posted June 30, 2015 I hope the city centre shopkeepers get some recompense for lost trade - I for one will not be going near the city centre.  I got stuck in this last year and there were hardly any cyclists to be seen.
