Maltby bus corridor

To improve public transport journey times and reliability, we have introduced an extra bus lane on sections of the A631 between Addison Road, Maltby, and the Bramley Roundabout/M18 Junction 1.

An additional bus lane runs between Addison Road, Maltby, and Denby Way, Hellaby, and there is an extension of the existing bus lane at Wickersley School towards the water works.

This provides residents, students, employees and businesses in and around the Maltby and Hellaby areas with faster and more reliable bus services, particularly the X1, X7 and X10 services linking Maltby to Rotherham and onwards to Sheffield City Centre via Magna and Meadowhall.

Work on the scheme is now substantially complete.

Public consultation took place in October/November 2022.

The scheme was delivered by Rotherham Council with money secured from the Department for Transport’s Transforming Cities Fund by the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority.
