. @FirstBusUK’s decision to hike bus fares for young people in Sheffield, just as the new term begins, is a real kick in the teeth to the next generation. Roll on bus franchising!

We’re releasing a new image of Events Central on Fargate—work by our contractor @WillmottDixon starts shortly, completing second half of 2026. It’ll have a 200-person event space, café/bar, co-working space, hosting events, exhibitions, workshops & talks

Introducing Grok Imagine.

We’re cracking down on private car park operators in Sheffield. If they don’t follow the rules then we will fine and shut them down. And the Labour Government is bringing in tough new standards to clean up the industry and protect drivers

Great to be in Stocksbridge with @MarieTidball to launch the new 35 hopper bus 🚌—helping people tackle the hills & restoring a Bolsterstone service after nearly a decade 👏 Big thanks to @OliverCoppard, Govt & @SouthPennineCT for helping make it happen!.

Our Urban Traffic Control Centre helps keep Sheffield moving—whether you’re heading to work, the shops or a gig at the arena. In our latest budget, we backed more investment to cut congestion and improve journey times across the city.

As a city, we’re focused on tackling congestion and keeping Sheffield moving. Deep in the Town Hall, our control room helps speed up your journey—whether you’re heading to school, work, the shops, a hospital appointment or a night out

We’re delighted to welcome @TaylorEmmet to the Isaacs Building in our @Sheff_HoC2 development—part of the transformation of Sheffield city centre. With Cambridge Street Collective, @LeahsYard & Pounds Park already thriving, there’s plenty more to come

Sheffield is set to become the UK’s biggest city to trial side-road zebra crossings — simple, low-cost changes that can make a real difference to road safety, especially for children, older people and disabled residents. These crossings reinforce the priority pedestrians already

Loads of great events have been happening across Sheffield this month. @HeeleyCityFarm is right on the doorstep for many in my ward — and since 1981, it’s opened up a different world for kids and families. Brilliant to drop by the Heeley Festival and enjoy it with the community

We’re making a real difference in Sheffield—especially for the most vulnerable—by improving air quality. Since launching our Clean Air Zone (which doesn’t charge private cars), pollution has fallen and more people are switching to cleaner vehicles.

Kapital – Sheffield’s largest ever beer hall & restaurant – is now open, delivered by local independent @twothirdsbeerco in @Sheff_HoC2. Another fantastic addition to our transforming city centre – with rising footfall & a real buzz in the air this summer

I’m pleased to share that I’ve been elected co-chair of the South Yorkshire Police and Crime Panel, alongside @RuthMilsom. We’ll be working together to make sure community concerns aren’t just listened to—but acted on. We’ve kicked off #NeighbourhoodPolicingWeek by questioning

🌍 This week we welcomed the council-backed Sheffield Energy Hub to Cambridge Street — a one-stop shop helping people cut bills, tackle climate change & explore retrofit and renewable energy. Open Mon–Fri, 10–4 — a whole community effort

Out in sunny Oughtibridge this evening with @MayorRos and South Yorkshire colleagues, campaigning for Josiah Lenton ahead of Thursday’s by-election. A great local candidate who’s lived here 30 years—I even taught him years ago in one of the local schools!

Great to drop in to the Eid Festival at Norfolk Heritage Park this weekend with @elledodd. A brilliant two-day celebration for all the family – with music, rides, delicious food and more. Fantastic to see thousands of people enjoying it across the weekend.

For those of us who got involved in politics through @LabourStudents, it’s fantastic to see the first Youth and Student Congress in a generation. NOLS – or Labour Students as we know it – has done more than any other organisation to bring working-class young people into politics.

Kelham Pride has been a huge success this year, bringing thousands of people into our city to celebrate love, inclusion, and our incredible LGBT+ community. Brilliant to enjoy it alongside @_OliviaBlake and some of our fantastic city councillors
