Local Conservatives are fighting for better bus services for High Lane.
Hazel Grove Conservatives continue to try to fight for better transport links across the constituency. One area that has been raised on the doorstep is a more comprehensive service for High Lane. The 394 bus route is one example that many residents have raised on the doorstep, especially concerning the regularity of services provided.
As the provider of buses in Greater Manchester changes it is more important than ever to highlight the importance of these services for residents in High Lane. Stockport under current plans from the Greater Manchester Combined Authority will come under the new reforms by the end of 2024. With the authority seeking to create new routes based on modern demand and the needs of local communities.
We are campaigning for an urgent review of the bus service into High Lane to encourage residents to use the service with a more frequent and better-quality bus route for our local area.

We will continue to work with our local MP William Wragg and local councillors to fight for better local services.
