Ongoing bus strikes across the north west have been put on hold after the union representing workers successfully secured an improved pay offer from Arriva North West.
Employees at the transport company have been taking part in 'all-out continuous strike action' over pay after union bosses blasted an originally offered pay rise of three per cent as 'pitiful'. Around 1,800 workers from depots including Bolton and Manchester have participated in the industrial action since July 20.
But Unite the Union has announced that employees will return to work tomorrow and vote on whether to accept the improved offer of 11.1%.
