Bus depots affected by the strike action are Consett, Gateshead, Hexham, Percy Main (North Shields), Sunderland and Washington. This means it’s likely many Go North East bus services will not operate.
As a result of the strike action Metro services will be extremely busy as more bus customers look for alternative transport options.
