Mattenmurg 10 #1 Posted August 17, 2019 Help me out! I work in town near the Moor. I really do need to drive to work (young kids in school, might need to dash etc.) But parking is a nightmare. I currently use Atkinsons but they’ve just bumped the day rate to £6 (£2 increase since Dec) and it’s just too much now. Any suggestions of anywhere cheaper in the same area are greatly appreciated.

Given the number of options, it might help to know which side of town you enter it from. And which end of the moor (though less important) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Michael_N 33 #6 Posted August 17, 2019 Would it not be cheaper to use the tram Park and Ride at Halfway, or even park somewhere say on Norfolk Park and travel in on the tram? Daysaver is only £4.20 but if you’re close to town could just pay the £1.80 singles each way (£3.60 in total). Or even get a Weeksaver for £14?

I used to use the tram but it would not get me in on time with school runs etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Bank Park at Milton St and behind Decathlon are quite cheap. I'd look at parking just outside the permit parking zone and walk in. Maybe look at area round Olive Grove Road / Slate St. There are free parking spots within the Highfield permit parking zone (Area between Queens Rd and London Rd) if you have a look, but they tend to fill up early. Also there are 10 hour parking bays in that zone which cost £2.80 for the day, but again, tend to fill up fairly early. Bottom of East Bank Rd near Sheffield College is free but again fills up early.

Andy C 83 #11 Posted August 30, 2019 There are cheap privately owned pay & display car parks in the Kelham Island area (Bridge Street). Bit of a hike to Moorfoot but there are regular buses (81/82/83/88) for the days you don't fancy the walk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Longy67 23 #12 Posted September 1, 2019 https://www.justpark.com/ Try Justpark, a friend of mine uses it to find spaces where people with a drive rent it out, I think rjmahan was pointing out, there might be a few round where you need.
