and live on Freeview channel 276
London Road will be shut southbound between the junctions with Wolesley Road and Broadfield Road from Monday, February 13 to Sunday, February 19, Sheffield Council has said. Motorists have been advised to plan ahead and allow more time for their journeys during this period.
The council said the closure was needed so work could be carried out to the power grid as part of the scheme to create a dedicated left turn from Broadfield Road onto London Road. It said the road would remain open northbound throughout.
