Further major changes are taking place in the Rotherham and Sheffield area in early September as followed:

The 35 (Sheffield-Wincobank-Meadowhall-Hillsborough) will be reduced from half hourly Sheffield-Wincobank (hourly to Hillsborough) to just the hourly full route journeys.
The short 35s will be replaced by new service 70 which also partily replaces services 69 and certain 71 journeys. The remaining 71s are also slightly re-routed within the Meadowhall area while some journeys replace the 69 in Tinsley.
The 69 is fully replaced by new service X1 between Rotherham and Sheffield, which also extends to Maltby replacing the 1/2.
The X78 is reduced to every 15 minutes throughout the route. Between Rotherham and Meadowhall, the service is re-routed to replace the 22m which is withdrawn.
Saturday journeys on the 31/31a (Sheffield-Loxley) will be operated by Stagecoach instead of Sheffield Community Transport
The SL (Middlewood Park & Ride - Stockbridge) will be renumbered SL1/SL1a with alternative journeys operating the reverse route around the Stockbridge loop. Evening journeys on the SL1 are also revised and extended from Middlewood to Hillsborough Interchange (route to be confirmed)

35000 remains on-loan - following the changes to the X78 back in May, it now additionally works 3 and a half trips on the 69 (Rotherham-Sheffield via Tinsley) on a weekday morning before dropping onto the full X78 (it works Rotherham shorts and Doncasters on Saturdays)
