Due to heavy snowfall this morning around 8am across Sheffield, there are numerous traffic problems across the city. First have suspended all their services in Sheffield and in Rotherham they are sticking to main roads only. The latest update from Stagecoach was that routes 25, 52, 120 and 123 all had buses stuck en-route and the 83/83A and 88s were terminating short at Hunters Bar roundabout. No surprise that the Travel South Yorkshire / SYPTE website has crashed due to overloading again (do they take note of previous incidents, ever?). Luckily both First and Stagecoach are providing regular updates on their websites: First - www.firstmainline.co.ukStagecoach - www.stagecoachbus.comSupertram - www.supertram.netYou can keep an eye out on the latest on the roads at: BBC travel news: www.bbc.co.uk/travelnews/sheffield/roads/unplannedMotorway jam cams: www.sy-transport.co.uk/traffic/motorwaySheffield jam cams: www.sy-transport.co.uk/traffic/sheffieldMore snow is forecast throughout today, with more heavy snow expected to return later this afternoon. |

I know it's Camelot but in Mosborough the main roads were pretty clear and the side roads no problem to a careful driver. On a quick trip to do a bit of shopping I saw a few buses,( TM Travel)and a couple of gritting wagons.

More snow is forecast for South Yorkshire this weekend. It seems there is just no getting away from this cold snap at the moment.

Not aiming to do a running commentary, but some services are currently affected by the latest snowfall - all in the usual places. 25 in Barnsley suspendes, Stocksbridge Services running along Manchester Road only, 11/12 turning at Malin Bridge and 120 turning at Ranmoor Church. Going to get worse before it gets better with heavy snowfall forecast between 3pm and 5pm.
Most surprising news of the day is that TSY is still active and hasn't resorted to using the free Twitter service. Shock horror LOL!

Usually Doncaster suffers no issues when it comes to the Snow but First service 67 to Lindholme will be operating via Main roads. So this will miss out the Estates!

Well the full site isn't working now and wasn't working when I finished work this afternoon. Still at least it is giving some information. |

I was under the impression that it has been down since early afternoon, I couldn't get on it at all from 2pm onwards (still cant) and at one point it had no information showing at all followed by saying everything was running ok before the normal listing appeared giving some useful information.

What I did was to refresh the screen by pressing F5 or the Ctrl button and R at the same time! |
