services running in Sheffield. Road conditions are very poor, traffic is gridlocked in many areas.
It's not quite so bleak in Rotherham or Barnsley, and in Doncaster it's sunny and 25 degrees 😉
The snow may be causing chaos, but it's also very pretty! ❄️
Has anyone got any photos of South Yorkshire buses, trams or trains in the snow that they would like to share? Or even interchanges, stations or bus stops?

From today, our tram network will be owned and operated by us, the people of South Yorkshire.
While you might not notice changes overnight, bringing the tram back under control is a signal of our commitment to a more connected South Yorkshire.
Morning Folks , Due to the Met Office issuing a Yellow Warning of snow in our region between 0600 Thursday 8th (Today) until 0600 Friday 9th February ( Tomorrow) we thought we'd start early , so we could give you as much advanced warning as possible disruptions 🤟
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Whilst all of us in South Yorkshire mourn and reflect on Her Majesty’s incredible life and devoted public duty, all public transport is planned to operate as normal over the coming days. 1/2
