Arundel Gate runs to the rear of the St Pauls Tower (also called the City Lofts Tower or the Conran Tower), Novotel Hotel, Central Library, Lyceum and Crucible Theatres and has Sheffield Hallam University on the other side of the road. Arundel Gate was once a dual carriageway forming part of the ill fated urban city centre motorway, now downgraded to bus lanes and single file traffic.

Howard Street is a street in the city centre of Sheffield. It provides a short link between Sheaf Square and one of the great road arteries; Arundel Gate. The street was pedestrianised in 2006 so as to provide safe haven to pedestrians using the railway station. Howard Street is paved all through in granite. The top end of Howard Street was pedestrianised in the late 1990s and transformed into Hallam Square. Hallam Square is a half amphitheatre shaped plaza with seating, a water feature and the entrance to Sheffield Hallam University.
