Sheffield Station is the busiest station in South Yorkshire, serving the city centre of Sheffield,…read moreit is also part of the Supertram network, where you can continue your journey around Sheffield/Rotherham, and the station is located adjacent to Sheffield Hallam University. The station is managed by East Midlands Railway, who provide most of the major services going in and out of the station, including services to Manchester and London. The station is also served by Transpennine Express on the Manchester Airport - Cleethorpes line (via Doncaster), and also has CrossCountry services (Edinburgh, Reading, Newcastle, York) and many Northern services (local services around Yorkshire and Greater Manchester) Due to the construction of the station, meaning you have to pass through the station to use the footbridge for access to bus and Supertram services, there are no ticket gates here. The main concourse of the station is pretty noticeable and modern, including a couple of shops / small-take away kiosks, there isn't particularly places to sit down and get something to eat/drink in the station which is annoying, but there is a Superdrug and Marks and Spencer Simply Food. There are places nearby in the city centre for food, however. I hate the lift at this station which takes you up to the footbridge, it must be the world's slowest lift, the doors take forever to close up to the point they're forced to have a sign in the lift, it says they're "working on it", but it's been like that for over two years... I guess it will stay like that. I think the station is A-OK, but still miles apart from other stations in Yorkshire including York and Leeds. 3*

Clean and modernized rail station in the Midlands, Sheffield offers transport to London,…read moreManchester, Leeds and Liverpool plus CrossCountry services to Scotland. There is also a tram stop nearby for Sheffield services. It's really quite a nice station with easy access to the tracks on stairs and step-free. There are labels on the steps so that traffic is kept to the left side. Many ticket windows for purchasing tickets if, like me, the automated ticket machine doesn't like your "swipe" credit card. Departure board is easy to read and the signage clearly points out which way to which platforms. There is a beautiful sculpture / fountain out front.

The Stagecoach Supertram is one of the best ways to get around Sheffield and the South Yorkshire…read moreregion with services going throughout Sheffield city centre, including locations such as IKEA, Meadowhall, Hillsborough (for Sheffield Wednesday FC) and even Rotherham and the railway station of Sheffield. Operated by Stagecoach, this means you can use a bus/tram ticket in the area as one, making it much cheaper than other tram services such as those serving Manchester and the West Midlands. Unlike some other tramway and light rail operators in England, Supertram accepts concessionary travel passes issued by any English local authority. With 50 stations across 4 lines, it isn't the largest of light-railway systems, but it does the job serving most locations you'd want in the city. Services are frequent enough, but they could be improved. Overall, the trams did seem a little old-fashioned, there was limited room on the trams too at most locations meaning it would be quite hard to find a seat at most times, the carriages were also separated by a large step. Some of the stations along the network could surely do with some modernisation in most regards, even by adding more modern signs, seating, lighting and just bringing it in line to the standard by Metrolink in Manchester for example. One of the best ways to get around Sheffield and even South Yorkshire, at an affordable price, making it better than most light-railway systems in that regards, but still let down by old-fashioned, cramped trains which could run a little more frequently at peak times. 3*

ZERO RATING. I have been told by customer services NOT to expect a refund for the poor service I…read morereceived and didn't get to my location because of them. A customer already on the tram told me that 10 MINUTES BEFORE I GOT ON the incident was reported. So I got on the tram at 6.25 pm, it went one stop I had just paid and they announced we wouldn't be moving because there was an 'emergency' on the tram in front. If it was an emergency an ambulance would be there right? They priorities all calls. NO. It was 25 MINUTES AFTER I GOT ON THE TRAM A CAR ARRIVED, NOT AN AMBULANCE. THE STAFF WERE RUDE AND UNHELPFUL. I only just found out from 'customer services' today, that First would have let me on with a Stagecoach only ticket in these situations. I did go to the front to get off and for my ticket to be swapped to a city wide but they refused. THE STAFF DIDN'T TELL ME this important information though. I walked back home because I was already late so missed the meeting. Stagecoach really need to get a grip on the fact that NON EMERGENCIES aren't more important than every other passenger on the tram and it should KEEP MOVING or remove the non emergency from the tram to wait for the ambulance.

Sheffield Interchange is located a fairly short walk away from Sheffield Station and Sheffield…read moreHallam University, it is a huge bus station in terms of stands (30 in total - not all of them are in operation), but I found this to be one of the poorest Interchanges I've ever visited, which is for some reason a glorified bus station, which only offers bus and coach services. (How can they call this an Interchange when it doesn't offer Supertram or Railway facilities, which are a 5-minute walk away!) Split across four different small stations (possibly the only reason why it is an Interchange) sections A/B/C/D the layout is really confusing to a first-timer like myself here, I didn't know where to go or what to do in terms of getting my bus, which caused me to be seconds away from missing my connection. They do have screens showing which buses are departing, but honestly, I can't help but question what purpose they offer, they are confusing and unclear and only show the buses from each section and their final destination, I've seen large boards in the past clearly showing where to go for each popular destination, mainly at train stations and Eldon Square Bus Station in Newcastle, considering there are so many stands, with a confusing layout nonetheless, I can't help but question why this isn't in operation here. The bus station seemed run-down, and a little old-fashioned, it seemed like one you'd find in a really small town which doesn't get many people, let alone the Interchange to serve a big city like Sheffield. There is apparently a Customer Service desk, shop (WHSmith) and charged toilet but I honestly have no clue where they are located, and there was a lack of signs too, adding to the confusing awkwardness of the station. An Interchange which doesn't deserve it's title in summary - with a confusing layout, lack of staff around to help or signs which are surely needed, I'm struggling to name any positives other than it providing decent access via bus to the Railway Stations and University (even then the Supertram is better to get right into the heart of the city and other locations around the region including those listed here) 1*

Ten Million Pounds wasted on an Interchange, or if you prefer it's more used by title "Bus…read moreStation", that hardly anybody uses. Don't get me wrong, it's used, but not as much as it should be for the price it cost to build it, and all at the tax-payers expence. The bus shelters are long corridores with sliding electronic glass doors that allow you to get on and off the few buses that use the Interchange, the corridores are kept clean but they are cold due to there being no indoor heating system. Connected to the Interchange there is a medium size indoor building where you can purchase food, hot and cold drinks, newspapers and other stationary goods, there's clean toilet facilities as well which have CCTV installed. That must have been installed to make sure you pay your "PENNY" when opening the toilet door.

What a fantastic driver!…read more Last night my teenage daughter was stranded in Sheffield by her so called uni 'friends'. She had no money and no way of getting back home to the Wakefield district. A brilliant driver brought her home and made sure she was safe. Well done, Sheffield City Taxis! It's good to know that you are a company who prioritises safety! Thank you
