Stagecoach services in Liverpool will not run until Tuesday

Over 400 Liverpool Stagecoach bus drivers are involved in a long-running pay dispute with their employer. The drivers say there is a large disparity between what they receive and the pay of Arriva bus drivers in the city.

Stagecoach bus services 1/X1, X2 & 471/472 operated by Birkenhead and Preston depots into Liverpool will operate as normal, as these depots are not involved in the industrial action. Normal service will resume on Tuesday morning, July 9. Mr Hayden claimed "support from the travelling public" for the strike has been "fantastic" but he criticised Stagecoach for the way they have communicated the industrial action to bus passengers. He said: "I've seen loads of people hanging round bus stops not realising that services weren't running."
