Around 1,800 London bus drivers employed by Abellio have accepted an 18% pay increase in a long-running dispute that involved more than 20 days of strike action, their trade union Unite said on Monday.

Under the deal, drivers with over two years' service will be paid 18 pounds ($21.75) an hour, equating to a pay increase of 18% on the basic rate, Unite said.
