A blue overhead sign suspended over the motorway from a post on the left, with a downward-pointing arrow indicating the left-hand lane, and the following text.
A6178 [Solid circle diversion symbol] [Hollow triangle diversion symbol] ; Sheffield (E); Rotherham (C); Meadowhall.
Junction number: 34.
You'll see the sprawling glass roof of Meadowhall on the left as we approach this junction - it was the UK's first major out of town shopping mall and it still pulls in huge amounts of traffic today. We're about to cross the Tinsley Viaduct, a long steel structure carrying us above the River Don and various industrial sites.
