Description

Doncaster Council is inviting city centre and nearby businesses to a roundtable discussion about the Southern Gateway – one of the most important transport corridors connecting Doncaster’s business, retail and leisure areas with the wider region.

The Council has secured central government funding to invest in this route, delivering improvements that will make it easier, safer and more reliable for customers, employees and deliveries to reach the city centre.

Why this matters for your business
The Southern Gateway improvements are designed to:

Reduce congestion and improve journey times for buses and general traffic
Enhance access to workplaces, retail areas and the city centre by making routes more direct and user-friendly
Encourage footfall by creating safer, better-lit, and more attractive public spaces
Support sustainable travel choices for staff and customers, aligning with corporate ESG and net zero goals
Minimise disruption through phased construction, informed by business feedback

Your insight as a local business will help shape how and when works are delivered — so that improvements support trade, attract more visitors and workers, and strengthen Doncaster’s economy.

Have your say
At the roundtable we’ll share:

An overview of the proposed changes to Cleveland Street, Trafford Way, White Rose Way and Middle Bank
Construction planning and phasing
Opportunities for collaboration on business access, communications and placemaking

This is your chance to influence how Doncaster’s city centre gateways evolve — ensuring the project brings real benefits to your business and to the city’s future growth.

Attendees must be located within the Southern Gateway Catchment area.
