The B607x routes all belong to a group running around or leading to and from Sheffield city centre.
The B6071 starts at Granville Roundabout, the junction with the A61 and the former A6134 Sheffield Inner Ring Road. It goes up Shrewsbury Road and Talbot Street passing the Park Hill flats to the north. It then reaches traffic lights and crosses Duke Street (formerly A616, later A6135, now B6070) on to Bernard Street. This marks the original 1922 southern end of the road but it now continues further north.
After crossing Cricket Inn Road (the former B6072) on to Bernard Road, the B6071 goes over the A57 Sheffield Parkway with no junction and then passes the Bernard Road Incinerator, before crossing the canal to reach a roundabout where it meets the B6073 Effingham Road. Some maps show the road ending here whilst others continue it along Foley Street and Leveson Street to end on the A6178.
