Belper Bus Station and Chapel Street will be closed from 7pm to 5am from March 16th until April 4th owing to resurfacing works being carried out by Derbyshire County Council between the A609 roundabout and Derwent Street.

This means that trentbarton and High Peak bus services will not be stopping there between these hours.

High Peak will divert from the A6 between Broadholme Lane and New Road, whilst trentbarton bus journeys will use King Street for every departure during these overnight works.

More details can be found on the High Peak and trentbarton websites.

As with the recent A6 closure at Milford, cars and other light traffic will be routed through the A6-A517-B5023-A6 (and vice versa).

HGVs are directed to the A6-A38-A610-A6 (and vice versa).

Access will be maintained, wherever reasonably possible, on the affected length of road. The road will reopen as soon as the work is finished, which may be earlier than advertised.

From March 2nd to 4th the A6 at Milford will be closed to traffic in both directions from 7.30am to 4.30pm. This is owing to essential tree removal above Makeney Road being carried out by Amber Valley Borough Council.

High Peak and trentbarton services will be running with diversions following the A517 Bridge Foot to Shottle and the B5023 to Duffield.
