The Joker   10 #6 Posted July 23, 2018 Yes seen quite a few near misses on the roundabout and all delivery trucks parking on the bend with double yellow lines  Is this the roundabout at the main entrance, that cut the Stocksbridge bypass in two ?  It does a very good job of slowing down traffic coming into Sheffield from Manchester, since you’re unable to negotiate it at anything above 30mph.  If there have been some near misses there, then somebody isn’t driving safely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

GoGo_dancer   10 #10 Posted July 24, 2018 The kid is ok according to one of the local Stocksbridge Facebook groups, didn't need the air ambulance after all. We were just trying to drive in to Fox Valley not long after it happened and had to turn around.  The entrance to Fox Valley has been an accident waiting to happen... hopefully now they will put some proper crossings in!

geared   268 #11 Posted July 24, 2018 Wouldn't be so bad if 90% of the people that go there didn't try and park as close to the entrance as possible.  It's always a nightmare as you first turn in, but 50 yards further on the car park has loads of empty space.
