Bus services across London to be disrupted by strikes

Around 50 bus routes are expected to be affected by strike action tomorrow.

Services will be affected from midnight on Wednesday March 17 and will be back to normal by 6am on Thursday March 18.

A full list of services that may be affected by the industrial action is below.

TfL will ensure as many bus services run as possible but bus customers across London are advised to check before they travel.

The drivers, who work for London United, a subsidiary of French firm RATP Dev London, are striking over pay and conditions.

Further action is planned for March 24 and March 31.

Geoff Hobbs, TfL’s director of public transport service planning, said: ”We will do everything possible to reduce the disruption if this strike action goes ahead, but customers who need to travel should again check before they travel and allow more time for their journeys. 

“We urge RATP Dev London and Unite the union to resolve the issue as soon as possible.”

The affected bus routes are as follows: 18, 33, 65, 70, 71, 72, 85, 94, 110, 111, 116, 148, 203, 216, 220, 223, 224, 265, 266, 281, 283, 371, 406, 411, 418, 419, 423, 440, 613, 662, 665, 671, 681, 696, 697, 465, N18, N33, N65, N266, C1, H22, H32, H37, H98, K1, K2, K3, K4, K5 and S3.
