It has been announced that National Express drivers across the Midlands region will commence continuous strike action from Monday 20th March, severely impacting their West Midlands services for the duration of the strike.

Diamond Bus, wishes to reassure our passengers that Diamond Bus services will not be affected by the strike action and will continue to operate as normal.

For those National Express customers who will be affected by service disruption, Diamond provides a wide variety of regular bus services across the West Midlands, and we advise you to check our website for alternative services that may enable you to continue to your travel requirements and complete your essential journeys.

Diamond Bus do not accept National Express tickets on our services, however we do have our own full range of affordable tickets, which can be purchased on bus or via our mobile app. With a Diamond West Midlands Day Adult ticket from just £4, our ticket prices are competitively priced and great value. We also have Low Fare Zone and Value options available for selected Diamond Services. Diamond Bus also accepts nBus, nNetwork, Swift and National Concessionary Bus Passes on our services.
