Traffic Regulation Orders

Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) are legal documents that enable us, as the local highway authority, to prohibit, restrict or reduce the use of a road by traffic. This includes motor vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians.

We implement TROs through a statutory procedure that involves advertising and consulting on the proposals in line with The Road Traffic Regulations Act 1984 and The Local Authorities' Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations 1996.

TRO measures

Measures we can bring in using TROs include:

  • road closures
  • speed limits
  • on-street parking
  • single and double yellow lines
  • one-way streets
  • access and turning restrictions
  • prohibition of certain types of vehicles
  • width, height and weight restrictions
  • bus and cycle lanes
  • taxi ranks

These measures and regulations help us to:

  • improve road safety
  • facilitate the passage on the road of any class of traffic
  • preserve or improve the character or amenity of an area
  • prevent use of a road by unsuitable vehicles
  • prevent serious damage to the highway
  • prevent damage to any building or near the highway
  • reduce and manage congestion
  • preserve or improve local air quality

Proposed Traffic Orders

Our current proposed Traffic Regulation Orders can be viewed below.

During the consultation period you can support, comment or raise objections on the proposals, including:

  • waiting restrictions for 3  weeks after this notice
  • moving orders for 3 weeks after this notice
  • speed limit orders for 4 weeks after this notice

The consultation period starts on the advertising date.

Connecting Sheffield - Nether Edge

The Traffic Regulation Order changes proposed aim to complement proposals which have been designed to deliver new cycling and walking routes connecting the City Centre to Nether Edge, and via a spur through Broomhall, to the West End and the University of Sheffield and hospitals. These key areas are situated within just a couple of miles of the City Centre but lack high-quality cycling and walking infrastructure, discouraging many from cycling or walking between these locations.

Connecting Sheffield (Nether Edge) is designed to change this. By providing high quality, safer and easy-to-use cycling and walking routes, making it easier for people to walk and cycle between these areas. Helping to:

  • reduce congestion on the roads

  • improve air quality within the area

  • support the creation of a greener, cleaner city

The scheme will also link into the city’s wider cycling network. For more information, please read the documents below.

Connecting Sheffield: Darnall and Attercliffe

Connecting Sheffield (Darnall and Attercliffe) is a planned cycling, walking and public transport infrastructure scheme being brought forward under Connecting Sheffield. It is a new approach designed to transform travel, alongside complementary environmental improvements. We are now consulting on our proposals for this scheme and would like to hear your views.

The Lower Don Valley is regenerating and has become an important employment and leisure area. An area stretching between the centres of Rotherham and Sheffield is now described as the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation District (AMID), with the Lower Don Valley at its heart.

Darnall and Attercliffe are experiencing significant growth in new housing, and new educational facilities have opened in recent years. There are several major leisure and sports centres in the area including:

  • Sheffield Arena

  • ice Sheffield

  • the English Institute of Sport

  • the Sheffield Olympic Legacy Park.

This project has been designed to transform access between these growing employment, leisure and housing opportunities in Darnall, Attercliffe and the Lower Don Valley into the City Centre and to Meadowhall, which will make the area more attractive to live, work and invest in.

Experimental Traffic Orders

In some instances, it is appropriate to introduce TRO changes on an experimental basis to trial a change to the highway network before making it permanent or otherwise.

An Experimental Traffic Order (ETO) is made under Sections 9 and 10 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984. It can only stay in force for a maximum of 18 months while the effects are monitored and assessed.

We welcome feedback throughout the process, however, formal objections to the Order being made permanent must be made in the first 6 months of it coming into force.

If any changes to an ETO are made, six months are allowed for objection from the date those changes come into operation. A decision on whether the changes introduced by an ETO will be removed or made permanent must be made within 18 months of an Order coming into force.

The decision to make a scheme permanent will follow our formal decision making process.

If you wish to view any current experimental waiting/parking restrictions, these can be viewed at the public consultation link provided under the proposed orders section. Any other experimental restrictions, such as movement or speed, can be viewed in our current Experimental Traffic Orders.
