Sheffield Half Marathon road closures: Where are the road closures in Sheffield, when are the closures and how long will they be closed for?

The Sheffield Half Marathon will return to the city on Sunday, March 26, 2023 where there will be thousands of runners expected to take part in the race. Runners and athletes alike will join together to help raise tens of thousands of pounds for a number of good causes including its official partner charities: the Jane Tomlinson Appeal, Sheffield Hospitals Charity, Sheffield Age UK, Cavendish Cancer Care, Macmillan Cancer Support, St Luke’s, Snowdrop Project, The Children’s Hospital Charity and Sheffield Futures.

The event is organised by Jane Tomlinson’s Run For All every year, in partnership with Sheffield City Council. Event organisers are now advising runners, spectators, residents and visitors that a number of the city’s roads will be closed or have restricted access to ensure the safety of all those who are taking part.

The race will start and finish on Arundel Gate, with a race start time of 9.30am and the event will require the closure of roads and road junctions as well as the suspension of a number of Traffic Regulation Orders between 4am and 4pm on Sunday, March 26. The event will also require a number of parking suspensions starting from 6.30pm around Ecclesall Road and from 8.30pm on Norfolk Street and Surrey Street from Saturday, March 25 until 4pm on Sunday.

Closures across the city centre including Arundel Gate and Norfolk Street will be in place until 4pm.

Operations director at Run For All, Tristan Batley-Kyle, said: “As with many major running events, some road closures are put in place to ensure the safety of the participants and spectators.

“We would like to apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused. All closures will be lifted as soon as possible.”
