Lost Batch of Crosspool Clarion

If you’re wondering why the spring issue of the Crosspool Clarion hasn’t reached your letterbox yet, it’s because the lorry bringing our delivery from the printers was involved in a serious road accident, and the entire batch was unfortunately lost.

The printers are already producing a fresh run for us, and new copies will be on their way as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding; it really does mean a great deal to us.

Crookes 20mph Speed Limit Proposal

Sheffield City Council is seeking views on a proposal to introduce a 20mph speed limit across the whole of Crookes. The planned zone would include the shopping centre and more than 40 residential streets stretching between Fulwood Road and Heavygate Road, including Cross Lane, Stannington View Road, Bole Hill Lane and Northfield Road.

Local councillor Minesh Parekh has also asked for Lydgate Lane to be added to the scheme. This extension is now part of the consultation, and he is encouraging residents who support the idea to make their views known.

If the scheme goes ahead, drivers turning from Broomhill’s shopping parade onto Crookes Road would immediately enter the 20mph area. No extra traffic‑calming features, such as speed bumps or cameras, are proposed; the change would be implemented through signage alone. Public Consultation & Map
