We're introducing temporary cycle lanes on Attercliffe Road between Princess Street and Stevenson Road this weekend. They'll create a continued route for the Five Weirs Walk while repair works are being undertaken.
We’re making it easier and safer to walk and cycle in Sheffield so roads and public transport are freed up for those who really need them.

A large proportion of England’s Ash trees, including Sheffield’s 250,000, are at risk from Ash Dieback, an infectious Asian tree disease sweeping across the country.
The Peak District and other parts of Derbyshire and Yorkshire have already seen a significant impact, and it has now begun to spread across Sheffield.
The next phase of works on the Supertram rail replacement project will be Area 3: Gleadless Townend/Ridgeway Road, Manor Top and Spring Lane Curve, which is set to begin on Saturday 25 July.
VolkerRail, the contractor carrying out the works, will post letters to local residents and businesses around the work areas notifying them of any disruptions.

In March we suspended rent arrears enforcement for three months for all tenants of non-residential Council property, a range of other rent support measures were put in place.
We recognise that many tenants who rent Council-owned property for business purposes and community groups have been badly affected. Support on rents has now been extended to continue to help.

Many leisure and fitness venues across the country reopen from 25 July. We are working with our leisure providers to make sure reopening happens safely and that residents in all areas of the city can access some facilities.
