More great High Peak news from our Parliamentary candidate Robert Largan.
Robert said,” I’m really pleased that a new daily bus is being launched between Buxton and the Hope Valley.
This new 62 service is being introduced by High Peak Buses and Derbyshire County Council.
Starting from 30th June, the new 62 service will operate between Buxton and Castleton, via Dove Holes, Chapel-en-le-Frith, Edale and Hope, with some journeys operating between Edale and Castleton.
From Buxton to Castleton, the new service will depart at 8.25am, 12.20pm and 3.45pm.
From Edale to Castleton, it will depart at 10am, 1.40pm and 5.10pm.
Returning from Casteleton to Buxton, it will depart at 10.25am, 2.05pm, and 6.05pm.
And leaving from Castleton to Edale, the bus will depart at 9.25am, 1.20pm, and 4.50pm.

I’m passionate about improving local public transport. That’s why I pushed so hard to get an extra £47million for better local bus services.
We’ve already reinstated the 185 bus to Harpur Hill and Buxton Hospital. And we got the 272 bus extended to run later in the evenings on weekends, which has made a real difference to Hope Valley residents.
The 62 is another big boost for High Peak passengers!”
