Reyt Good Sheffield Podcast – Friday 31 July 2026 | Woodhead Pass Open, Ski Village Plans & Longley Park Fire

It’s Friday 31 July 2026, and today’s Reyt Good Sheffield Podcast begins with some very welcome travel news the A628 Woodhead Pass has finally reopened.

Exciting plans have also been revealed to transform Sheffield’s former Ski Village, potentially bringing a downhill luge, family attractions, dry-ski slopes, a zipline and even a surf-wave experience to Parkwood Springs.

We also cover the grass fire near Longley Park, the safety findings following the Staniforth Road tram collision, the fatal Ranmoor collision appeal, two e-bike robberies and the reported closure of River Island on The Moor.

Plus, we look at what’s happening across Sheffield today, including the Abbeydale Road Beer Festival, Rant and Ramble Coffee Rave, workshops, live events and activities around the city
