Sheffield Parkway at night, looking towards Victoria Quays junction.

The Sheffield Parkway is a major dual carriageway in the City of Sheffield, England. The 5.5 mile road was opened in 1974, and runs to the east of the City, connecting Park Square in the City centre with the M1 motorway at junction 33. On this route it passes the districts of Wybourn, Darnall, Handsworth, and the village of Catcliffe, at which a slip road connects to Sheffield City Airport. Many businesses and Sheffield attractions are located close to the Parkway as it is known in Sheffield, and it can become highly congested. For approximately 2.5 miles of its route the road forms a part of the A57 road, the rest being part of the A630 road.
