Meadowhall isn't just a shopping centre there is so much more to the area of Meadowhall than that. Our Cycle Hub is located at the junction of two National Cycle Network routes and is just steps away from rail, tram, bus and coach connections to places all over the country.
It opened in September 2023 and was opened by Ed Clancy the South Yorkshire Active Travel Commissioner.
Located Next to Platform 2 in The Meadowhall Interchange Car Park at the end of the Blackburn Valley Trail.
With bus prices increasing and a single fare from Ecclesfield to Sheffield City Centre costing £2.80 each way and a journey time of potentially 50+ mins have you considered using multi-modal travel?
