Route X57

Route: Sheffield - Glossop - Manchester

Service changes

Date Change details
And FS evening jnys on the X57 temporarily suspended too
Buses return from Ashbourne at 0915, 1115, 1315, 1515 and 1715 (1650 summer Saturdays).
Hulleys' Day Hopper+ ticket at £10 (same price as a period return from Manchester to Sheffield) is valid throughout the X1 and X57 routes along with the other Hulleys routes around Derbyshire and South Yorkshire.
Meanwhile, most Monday-Saturday jnys on the X57 will divert into Hyde bus station with the exceptions being the Friday & Saturday evening jnys plus the 1945 from Manchester to Sheffield.
TfGM have posted the new timetable for the X57 between Sheffield and Manchester Airport. One change that hasn't been reported beforehand is that as well as the re-routing via Hyde bus station, buses will also be stopping at Gorton Tesco as well.
The first departure from Manchester and last departure from Ashbourne will divert via Alton Towers on Saturdays during summer months.
Unlike the Hyde re-routing, the stopping in Gorton appears to apply to all jnys on the X57, including the FS jnys. Hopefully, this will attract some extra passengers from nearby areas to connect with the X57 at Gorton or Hyde instead of having to travel i
X57 departures from Manchester to the airport at 0845, 1105, 1305, 1505 and 1705 will change into the X1 at Manchester Airport before running direct to Macclesfield and then onto Leek and Ashbourne, replacing D&G Bus services 108 and 109.
