Bus passengers urged to check journeys ahead of planned industrial action

Staff at Stagecoach, Metroline, and First – who operate services on the Bee Network – have announced that they plan to strike from Friday 19 to Monday 22 September (inclusive). This will significantly disrupt bus services across south Manchester, Tameside, Trafford, and Stockport.
With a week to go, everyone travelling in the city-region is encouraged to check before they travel next week and leave plenty of time when making essential journeys.

Travel advice:
• Plan ahead and check your journey using the Bee Network app or website.
• Bus passengers with seven, 28-day or annual passes, as well as those with concessionary passes – including our pass - will be able to use their tickets and passes on all Metrolink trams on strike days.
• Local Link and Ring and Ride services will run as usual.
• Tram and train services may be busier than normal – avoid peak times where possible (7am-9am and 4pm-6pm).
• Roads and hire bike demand may also be busier.
TfGM will have extra staff at key locations to assist passengers and will extend the Bee Network contact centre hours to ensure people can get in touch with any questions.

For full details full list of bus services that are not expected to run, where people can use existing tickets and other travel advice, please visit - www.beenetwork.com/bus-industrial-action. More information is also available in the press release.
