Connecting Sheffield: Darnall–Attercliffe-City Centre is a planned cycling, walking and public transport infrastructure scheme being brought forward under Connecting Sheffield, a new approach designed to transform travel, alongside complementary environmental improvements. We are now consulting on our proposals for this scheme and would like to hear your views.
The Lower Don Valley is regenerating and has become an important employment and leisure area. An area stretching between the centres of Rotherham and Sheffield is now described as the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District (AMID), with the Lower Don Valley at its heart.
Darnall and Attercliffe are experiencing significant growth in new housing, and new educational facilities have opened in recent years. There are several major leisure and sports centres in the area including Sheffield Arena, iceSheffield, the English Institute of Sport, and the Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park.
Connecting Sheffield: Darnall–Attercliffe-City Centre has been designed to transform access between these growing employment, leisure and housing opportunities in Darnall, Attercliffe and the Lower Don Valley into the City Centre and to Meadowhall, which will make the area more attractive to live, work and invest in.
The scheme will feature largely segregated cycle routes, improved walking infrastructure and bus priority measures to improve reliability and journey times. Where possible, we will look to introduce environmental improvements such as new planting.
The current proposals would require the removal of 15 small semi-mature trees: 12 by iceSheffield, 2 by the English Institute of Sport and 1 by the Olympic Legacy Park to make room for the footway and cycle track. Replacement trees would be planted in the same area with an additional 22 tress proposed elsewhere along the scheme's extent. The species of trees and locations for planting will be confirmed with the help and advice of the Sheffield Street Trees Partnership and will be in line with the Sheffield City Council Trees and Woodlands Strategy 2018-2033.

Surveys have recently taken place along the Darnall-Attercliffe route to understand the number of people that currently walk and cycle at various points along the scheme. The surveys will help shape how an active travel scheme could look. We will only use the footage we capture to determine numbers, we won’t record any personal information like faces or number plates.
This data collection exercise is one of the first stages of the project that will include further local consultation and engagement on the designs later-on in the year.
