Manchester Evening News
|October 04, 2025
AN 'EXCEPTIONAL' 20 per cent pay deal has led to drivers working for First Bus to call off strike action in Greater Manchester, Unite the union has said.
-
Staff working for the firm were involved in industrial action over pay, alongside those from Stagecoach and Metroline who are planning further strikes in the region from next week.
Unite said a new deal for drivers at First Bus means members earning £15 an hour for all days worked will see their wages increase incrementally up to April 2026, rising to £18 an hour for working Monday to Friday, £19 for Saturday and £20 for Sunday working.
The deal was accepted by Unite members after a vote.
