The latest communications from the Council:
The application to extinguish Bridleways 77 & 79 (between Redmires Rd & Lodge Lane) and turn them into footpaths has been turned down. This was hotly fought by local mountain bikers and the Friends of the Peak District.
On Ecclesall Rd, there will be some additional parking restrictions, most notably at the junction with Greystones Rd. The proposals have been toned down following a campaign including local residents
and cyclists. The principle that capacity improvements are only going to provide temporary respite and that encouraging people to car-share, use the bus, walk or cycle is the way forward seems to have been accepted.
Also a new pedestrian island on Birley Spa Lane.
