M1 northbound J31 slip to be closed all day Sunday

The M1 in South Yorkshire is closed northbound between J31 (A57, Sheffield) and J32 (M18) due to planned overnight roadworks which are overrunning.

The works, which were due to be complete at 06:00 are now expected to be ongoing until at least 07:00 due to unforeseen circumstances with resufacing.

Additionally, the J31 northbound entry slip road will not re-open, and will remain closed throughout the day as additional resurfacing works will be taking place overnight Sunday into Monday.

Diversion Route

Road users are advised to follow the hollow triangle diversion symbol on road signs:

  • Driving north, exit the M1 at J31 and proceed to the roundabout at the end of the slip road.
  • At the roundabout, take the 1st exit onto the A57 (Sheffield Road) and proceed along this road for approx. 7 miles until the junction with the A630.
  • At the junction with the A630, take the 2nd exit and merge with the eastbound A630 (Rotherham Road) and proceed along this road for approx. 3 miles until the junction with the M1 at J33.
