SarahL Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Just tried to get to the tip in High Green, they are diverting traffic through Chapeltown, lorries and everything. It's a traffic nightmare, avoid High Green and Chap at the mo if you can!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raskel Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Can we still go through Hillsborough tram gate without getting a letter, or was it just yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmist Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 The parkway is now closed outbound from Asda to rotherham. The motorway is completely closed I would guess that there is now no way of accessing rotherham from sheffield at all!! Jus read on council webiste that all emergency service workers are being asked to go to their nearest depot or hospital etc if possible and not to try to get to their normal place of work if dangerous! There's no cones at the bottom of Cowley Lane chapeltown any more so you might be able to go out that way to get to Rotherham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyoHazuki Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Sorry, just spotted this thread after posting in the "Floods" section. Are the 75/76 buses running into town OK? I work the late shift for Royal Mail and need to know if I can get to town and back OK. I've been all over the net, and tried phoning the bus lines but to no avail. I usually work at Brightside lane, but they've told us to make our way to the CDO in town. Your help much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlemissy Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I can't comment about town but they are definitely running. I saw a 76 in Chapeltown when I went to the shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyoHazuki Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Ah right. I've just managed to get through on the phone line, and the lassie says the buses are delayed and experiencing problems, but they are getting through. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melter Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Parkway now shut between Handsworth and Rotherham (didn't specify which direction, or both) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jowl Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Mill Road and Nether Lane in Ecclesfield are now open. Any idea what its like at Dinnington? Depends where you are. My back Garden was under 2 feet of water...smae for garage. A lot of new houses were flooded I think. Although the roads seem okay. Aston/Treeton/swallownest all bad though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jowl Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 In theory, you want Penistone road, past SWFC, up Halifax road (parsons cross) to A61 as far as junction 36 of M1. I think this is supposed to be doable atm. A61 around Grenoside is quite bad/flooded at the moment was my last info. You can go through Chapeltown - police are directing traffic and it it slow but passable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reditiger Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 can you actually leave the parkway at handsworth? I need to get from sheffield to worksop (currently stuck at work and want to get home) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
