High Peak Buses Limited is a bus company based in Dove Holes, Derbyshire, formed in 2012.[1] It operates a mixture of local and long-distance commercial and subsidised public bus services in and around the Borough of High Peak, after which it is named.

History

In April 2012, Centrebus and Wellglade Group entered a 50/50 joint venture. This saw Bowers Coaches and Trentbarton's Buxton operations combined based at the latter's Dove Holes depot.[2][3]

Services

High Peak operates all services previously run by Bowers Coaches and the Buxton depot of Trentbarton,[2] including:

Fleet

Most of the fleet wears the Centrebus corporate livery although the vehicles used on Skyline199 and Transpeak which have dedicated branded vehicles. Skyline199 has a dedicated fleet of 7 Mercedes-Benz Citaros while Transpeak uses 4 Enviro200s.[7]

High Peak has recently added two ADL Enviro200MMCs as part of an upgrade to its fleet which all have space saving features.[8]

Depot

High Peak has a fleet of around 50 vehicles all based at the former Trentbarton depot in Dove Holes and employs over 100 people.[9]
