We are campaigning to:
- Add more apartments of a larger size - 2, 3 & 4 bedrooms
- Allow local access through the Glossop Road bus-gate, which has severely damaged local businesses and made living in the area very difficult since changes in 2017
- Add suitable accommodation for 10,000 more people to live in the city centre, increasing the total to 30,000.
- Maintain and increase greenery in the city centre
- Reduce air pollution, which in some places is more than double the EU recommended limits for Nitrogen Dioxide
- Change several roads where pedestrians have to cross much safer and give priority to the people crossing - for example, Barkers Pool across Cambridge Street and Burgess Street.
- Encourage more elegant architecture and open space around all apartments, plus underground parking.
Got an idea? Have your say, or come to a meeting! We can't do it alone! If you want this to happen, we need to work together.

- Glossop Road Bus-gate – latest news at 07-08-2017:
Changing Sheff has been pressing for urgent changes to the revised Glossop Road traffic scheme, resulting from pedestrianisation of Leavy Greave Road for Sheffield University campus improvement.
Changing Sheff has been objecting to Sheffield City Council on behalf of residents, local businesses and visitors about the revised traffic layout on the outward lane of Glossop Road from Regent Street (Boots Pharmacy) to the Hanover Way ring road. The new scheme is misleading, badly signed, complicated, damaging to businesses and highly inconvenient for residents and visitors. The plans were made public in May 2015 at a consultation exercise carried out to explain the revised Sheffield University Campus at Leavygreave Road.
If you have any comments on these proposals, please email to let us have them asap.
