==Layout and facilities== ===Layout=== [[File:Meadowhall Station p1 2018.jpg|thumb|right|Platforms 1 and 2]] The interchange is located to the north of [[Meadowhall (shopping centre)|Meadowhall]] shopping centre, to which it is connected by a pedestrian footbridge, which provides the main entrance to the interchange. Additionally, entrances are located from Meadowhall Road into the bus station, on Barrow Road from the park and ride car park onto the heavy rail platforms, and from Tyler Street directly from street level onto the main concourse. The ticket office for [[National Rail]] services is located off to the side of the footbridge which connects the interchange with the shopping centre. This footbridge continues over platforms 1 and 2, opening up onto a raised open-air concourse area from which platforms 2 and 3 can be accessed. A further footbridge from this central concourse provides access to platform 4 and the Tyler Street interchange entrance; platform 1 and the Supertram platforms are accessed directly by steps down from the main footbridge, opposite the ticket office. [[File:Meadowhall Station p3 2018.jpg|thumb|right|Platforms 3 and 4]] There are no ticket barriers at the interchange. In addition to the ticket office, several ticket machines are located in the open-air concourse between platforms 2 and 3. The main waiting room, with toilet and baby changing facilities, is located at the end of the light rail platforms, opening onto platform 1, with an additional waiting room provided on platform 2. A park and ride car park is located behind platform 2, with additional parking facilities available around the shopping centre. A second concourse is located next to the bus and coach station and contains toilets, [[Travel South Yorkshire]] ticket purchasing facilities and a number of small shopping outlets. ===Platforms=== The station is located immediately to the north-east of Station Junction, where the [[Dearne Valley Line]] diverges from the [[Hallam Line|Hallam]] and [[Penistone Line]]s. Platforms 1 and 2 are a pair of side platforms located closest to the shopping centre on the Dearne Valley Line. Platforms 3 and 4 are a pair of side platforms located on the other side of the central open-air concourse on the Hallam and Penistone Lines, laid out at a 45-degree angle to platforms 1 and 2. [[File:Meadowhall tram 2018.jpg|thumb|right|Supertram platforms in 2018]] The light rail platforms, numbered MEI1 and MEI2, are located immediately behind and parallel to platform 1; they are constructed in an island layout. Since the cessation of off-peak Purple Line services to Meadowhall Interchange, most tram services depart from platform MEI1. There are a total of sixteen stands at the bus and coach station, arranged into four main rows, each accessed by [[zebra crossing]]s. Row A, consisting of stands A1 to A5, is located alongside the bus station concourse. Row B, consisting of stands B1 and B2, is located as a small island between rows A and C. Row C, consisting of stands C1 to C5, and row D, consisting of stands D1 to D4, are a pair of parallel island rows located at the side of the bus station closest to the heavy rail platforms. The majority of intercity bus and coach services depart from row A, while city bus services depart from rows B, C and D.
