Hulleys of Baslow launch travel scheme called Go Keyless

As you know the Peak District National Park is a magnet for visitors, it offers world class attractions and we are lucky to be surrounded by stunning scenery. However, that also attracts additional traffic that causes congestion and obstruction, and it’s evidently not particularly environmentally friendly and the list goes on.

We launched a travel scheme a few months ago called Go Keyless (i.e. without the Car) to encourage visitors to use public transport whilst on holiday, which would help to reduce traffic and congestion, and help where parking is limited at hot spot attraction areas within our network and the National Park where we have seen or heard about significant problems with parking and sometimes illegal parking.

The Peak District relies on tourism along with local businesses and local employment for locals, so it’s essential we promote our network and the Peak District National Park as much as we possibly can to benefit everybody.

Here at Hulleys we know we are essential to our local community by offering crucial bus services and employment, unfortunately our services have suffered significantly due to an increase in traffic congestion within the Peak District National Park causing delays and more, so we are looking to offer this discount to more businesses.

We have already partnered with many Caravan/Camping sites and Youth Hostels and Bed and Breakfastz and Hotels within our network and we are offering their guests a 25% discount on local bus travel during their visit to the Peak District, the discount will be valid for the duration of their visit.

I’d like to say a huge thank you to every business that’s signed up and started to take steps to help make a difference as we have already seen an increase in passenger numbers from the business locations that have already signed up.

This offer is open to any form of business that specialises in offering accommodation, but you must become a partner to be eligible to pass on the discount to your guests, it takes less than a minute to apply.

I completely understand this alone will not solve any traffic congestion and issues alone, but it’s certainly a step forward in promoting our network and the National Park.
