More than 350 drivers from the Lea Interchange Bus Company — part of Stagecoach — are expected to participate in the 9-10 January strikes, which will impact 13 bus routes — including several that service the borough. A number of the routes, including the 97 and 339, also serve Westfield’s Stratford City in a blow to shoppers hoping to snag a deal in the January sales.

The strikes will impact routes 58, 86, 97, 135, 236, 276, 308, 339, 488, D8, W13, W14 and 678.
