BUS passengers are being urged to plan ahead with a second round of strikes scheduled to take place next week.

Staff at some Bee Network bus operators - First, Metroline and Stagecoach - have announced that they plan to strike from Tuesday, September 30, to Thursday, October 2. During the planned industrial action around two-thirds of Bee Network buses across Greater Manchester will not run, including some school services. Due to the timing of industrial action, some services in the very early hours of the morning of Friday, October 3 may also be affected.
