Parts of London are set for bus “chaos” later this month when the capital is hit by a fresh wave of strikes by drivers locked in an ongoing dispute over pay.
Unite announced on Tuesday that more than 1,700 of its members employed in the capital by bus firm Arriva will walk out on June 20 and 21 and June 27 and 28 after voting to reject a seven per cent pay offer.
The strikes will predominantly affect routes in north and east London, with drivers striking from bus garages in Ash Grove, Barking, Clapton, Edmonton, Enfield, Palmers Green, Tottenham and Wood Green.
TfL has confirmed the routes that will be affected are: 19, 29, 34, 38, 41, 73, 78, 102, 121, 123, 141, 144, 149, 150, 158, 175, 191, 192, 221, 242, 243, 253, 254, 259, 279, 307, 313, 318, 325, 329, 340, 341, 349, 377, 675, W3, W4, W6, N19, N29, N38, N41, N73, N102, N123, N149, N158, N242, N243, N253, N279, N341
