A spokesman said today: “After a busy night with 107 calls, three roads remain closed whilst we or Yorkshire Water make the necessary repairs.

They added: “All roads will be reopened as soon as it’s safe to do so.”

Last night, the torrential rain led to car becoming stranded in High Street, Beighton and the surfacing being reportedly lifted off a section of Abbeydale Road.

South Yorkshire Police last night reported a number of roads closed in Sheffield due to the flooding which affected the city; and at the time advised motorists to ‘please take care travelling’.
