Bus strikes – east London

Strikes are planned on 7 bus routes operated by Stagecoach from Bow Bus Garage. If they go ahead, some services will be severely delayed and buses may be cancelled.

The strikes are planned:

• From 05:00 Friday 17 April to 05:00 Saturday 18 April
• From 05:00 Friday 24 April to 05:00 Saturday 25 April
• From 05:00 Friday 15 May to 05:00 Saturday 16 May

Services will operate as normal on Thursday 16 April, Thursday 23 April and Thursday 14 May, including night services.

These routes are affected: 8, 25, 205, 425, N8, N25 and N205

We expect that the 25 and 425 will run a near normal service for most of the day throughout the strikes. The N8 will run a reduced route between Hainault and Liverpool Street at its usual frequency. The other affected routes are likely to be severely delayed and subject to cancellations.

All other bus routes will run as planned. There is a planned Tube strike on Tuesday 21 to Friday 24 April. Other local services may be busier than usual.
