Road chiefs seek ideas to run with
Officers at Sheffield Council and the South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive are currently working on a so-called Smart Route project for Ecclesall Road, which is a hotspot for traffic jams.

A spokesman said: “In March and this month, local residents, businesses, commuters and visitors to the area have been giving their feedback on the proposed changes as part of the Ecclesall Road Smart Route.
“Proposals aim to improve facilities for pedestrians and cyclists, while encouraging some car users to consider other options.”
