A54 Macclesfield Main Road to A53 Leek RoadDate: Friday 24th July to Friday 30th October 2026

Road Closed: A54 Macclesfield Main Road to A53 Leek Road
Date: Monday 27th July to Friday 30th October 2026
Service affected: 58

UPDATE - The road has reopened early and the 58 service will return to the normal route and timetable from Sunday 18th October.

Due to road safety improvements, the A54 will be closed to the A53 Leek Road, preventing the 58 service from accessing the Cat & Fiddle. During this time the 58 service will operate a revised route and timetable. 

58 Buxton - Macclesfield
- This service will operate via Long Hill & B5470 (via Rainow) to maintain an hourly service between Buxton and Macclesfield. 
- Most journeys will extend beyond Macclesfield Bus Station to main a service to the Black Road area. 
- We will be unable to serve the Burbage area in Buxton for the duration of the closure, but EMCCA (East Midlands Combined County Authority) are currently looking at options for Burbage residents during this period.  

Revised Timetable can be found HERE

EMCCA (East Midlands Combined County Authority) have contracted us to provide a shuttle bus between Buxton & Burbage during the closure of the Cat & Fiddle, whilst the 58 is diverting via Rainow. The 58B service will operate as far as Ladmanlow (after looping Burbage) to ensure the stops on Leek Road are also served - there is a triangular junction at Grin Low Road, which the bus will use to turn the bus around to return to Buxton.

B5470 Macclesfield Road, RainowDate: Monday 2nd November 2026

** MAJOR DISRUPTION - PLEASE READ **

Road Closed: B5470 Macclesfield Road, Rainow
Date: Monday 2nd November - expected 3 weeks
Service 60

Following an RTC, which resulted in damage to the Reed Bridge, an emergency timetable is being introduced for the duration of the closure, with the majority of journeys on the route curtailed to operate between Macclesfield and Rainow only, and between Kettleshulme and Hayfield only. Closure is expected to be in place for 3 weeks. 

There are a limited number of through journeys between Macclesfield and Hayfield, which are diverted between Whaley Bridge (Horwich End) and Macclesfield via the Cat & Fiddle and Long Hill, with increased journey times as a result.

All journeys will operate as service 60 - the Stoneheads Estate in Whaley Bridge will continue to be served on a reduced basis. Please see the timetable for full details.
