Yes.

Is the road network / approach to the ground passable?

Is this the junction we would take ?

M1 South Yorkshire, southbound between A629 [M1 junction 35] and A630 [M1 junction 33]

M1 South Yorkshire - Stop-start traffic and delays of 25 minutes on M1 southbound between J35, A629 (Thorpe Hesley) and J33, A630 (Catcliffe).

Yes, you'll be getting off at J34 (Meadowhall)

I live at J35 so may miss the motorway out if it's busy, might have quietened later though.

I must admit I don't envy you lot travelling down from Halifax. Could be chaos factoring in Friday night rush hour.

Re: Sheffield v Halifax : Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:50 pm  

Get off at Junction 33 and follow signposts to Don Valley,Arena,That will be your best bet.
