Further expansion ahead - from 23rd July, Stagecoach have been awarded the contract for the tendered journeys on the 65 (Sheffield to Buxton) which have been thrown in by High Peak (the two commercial journeys leaving Buxton at 0855 and 1225 will remain operated by High Peak). These will be operated by Chesterfield and will be extended from Sheffield to Meadowhall along the same route as the X17 extension.
Information from ‘mojoe44’ over on the ‘Travel South Yorkshire Transport’ Forum
Derbyshire County Council have now put the timetable online
To save on dead mileage, the first journeys from Calver Sough to Buxton (Schooldays as the 65a via Buxton Hospital and Community School, Saturdays and School Holidays via the normal 65 route) and the last journey from Buxton on Monday to Saturday will start/finish in Chesterfield and run as service 66 between Chesterfield and Tideswell (the last departure from Buxton will connect with an X17 in Chesterfield allowing more time in Buxton (the last direct Buxton to Sheffield will leave at 1532 on schooldays as a 65a, and 1603 Saturdays and Holidays as a 65).
With the exception of the aforementioned last direct journey, the rest of the Monday to Saturday journeys are extended to Meadowhall along the same route as the X17.
