Magna Science Adventure Centre
Magna Way, Templeborough, Rotherham, S60 1FD
Shuttle bus service from Sheffield City Centre
In previous years, a complimentary shuttle bus service has operated from 'selected' city centre Sheffield hotels and the Magna Science Adventure Centre over the two days.
This year we may take the decision to not offer a complimentary shuttle service if uptake is low. We will of course review demand closer to the time, therefore it is imperative that should you be interested in this service that you select your 'interest' at registration so that it helps us assess requirements.
However, a complimentary shuttle service will operate a return journey from close of conference on day 2 and to the gala dinner to 'selected' city centre hotels.

From either of these stations you are advised to take the no.X1 bus service direct to Magna. From Sheffield station walk to the Interchange (about 4 mins) to catch the bus. From Rotherham Central, turn right out of the station into the bus station and take the X1 bus (stop B4).

The X1 Steel Link service drops visitors right outside Magna, up to every 10 mins. Travelling from Sheffield city centre, you can catch the X1 Steel Link from bus stops on Eyre Street, Castle Street and Arundel Gate.

The X1 Steel Link travels from Maltby through Rotherham, picking up at the Interchange and on to Magna. Taking only 5 mins, travelling to Magna couldn’t be easier from Meadowhall Interchange on the X1 Steel Link.
