Anyone else had the letter from Harworth saying they want to expand the AMP roundabout? One set of roadworks ends; another begins! Yep got it through too. I've had a quick glance. It didn't seem too obvious what they were planning to do, though I did only quickly skim read it.

Hopefully the new entrance to he university will stop those dickheads racing each other and driving like maniacs on Stephenson!

Yeah just had the same letter. Interesting to see the proposed routes for the roads faded on the diagram, looks like there's going to be another exit off the round about in and around the amrc. Did you clock the other end of Stephenson Way on the proposed layout? Looks like they plan to open that up to Highfield Spring as well.

On the original master plan this was as shown in the news plans. Other updates to the master plan show that it would link up to high field lane to service the houses on the currently undeveloped road and not link with Highfield spring. Who knows what they will end up with.

For those interested the plans are outlined on the link below rotherham.planportal.co.uk/?id=RB2015/1460Looks like they are making it two lanes to go around the roundabout but then seem to merge back into one. Not sure how this fits into the existing work on the Morrisons roundabout.

Does anyone have the plans to the works that are ongoing on Poplar Way? I can't find them on the planning website.
It looks to me at the moment that the existing road and the newly constructed road are at times around 3-4 lanes wide but then bottleneck down to 2 at the roundabout where you would join the parkway to town. I can only think that the new section of the road is 2 lanes wide at one point to accommodate a bus stop and still allow traffic to get past.

RB2012/1428 I particularly like the feedback from Sheffield Council where they say they've no objections then take the opportunity to rubbish the design.

I looked at the plan and its a wasted opportunity to make the road two lanes and extend the left hand lane into the current expansion of the Morrisons roundabout. I really don't see the value of combining two lanes of traffic into one lane when there is space for two lanes.
