There will be no Arriva buses operating anywhere in Merseyside from tomorrow and for the foreseeable future as a continuous strike begins.
The major bus company has confirmed that it will be unable to run any services across the region from 2am tomorrow when the continuous walk-out gets underway. The action comes after talks between Arriva and the Unite and GMB unions failed to reach an agreement over pay.
During the industrial action there will be no planned Arriva bus services operating within Merseyside, Greater Manchester, Lancashire or Cheshire, except for local Macclesfield services which will all run with the exception of service 38. For the duration of the industrial action journey planning in the north west region on the Arriva website and Arriva UK Bus App will be disabled. Arriva customers with pre-paid tickets travelling in Cheshire will be able to use them on buses operated by D&G Buses.
