Rotherham Interchange will reopen on Sunday 3rd March following its 11 month refurbishment. This co-insides with the changes to Rotherham's town network the same day, which more-or-less follows exactly what was consulted on back in the autumn.
Some minor changes will take place, including:
- Stagecoach operated Monday to Friday only 107 (Rotherham to Swinton via Parkgate and Rawmarsh) diverted to serve Greasborough and Nether Haugh rather than Parkgate as a partly replacement for the 227 (Rotherham to Hoyland via Greasborough and Wentworth).
- First's replacement for the 227, the 136 (Hoyland to Rothertham via Thorpe Hesley) will be slightly amended - the first inbound departure from Hoyland at 0636 will run as a 236 via the 227 route
- Powells' service 87 (Maltby to Meadowhall/Sheffield) is withdrawn. In its place, Powells are re-introduting daytime journeys on the X7 (Sheffield to Maltby) at a half-hourly frequency
- An additional 'extra' trip is being added to Stagecoach's X17 - this time it's one on the northern section, with a new peak time journey added departing Barnsley at 1630, returning from Sheffield at 1740 (likely to be a Barnsley operated turn). Additionally, the Barnsley-bound stand in Sheffield Interchange changes to Stand C2 for all journeys from March (currently only the Saturday 'extra' journeys use C2, the main service uses C1).
- The X78 appears to be staying at every 15 minutes rather than the planned increase to every 12 minutes.
