RE: Next Stop Announcement Systems - ne14ne1 - 20 Dec 2023
(07 Dec 2023, 7:55 pm)ne14ne1 How come the 47 is still making announcements as if it runs non stop between Metrocentre and Central Station?
This was flagged with customer services who passed it on two months ago, yet it’s still not sorted and still causing confusion.
This has now been resolved.

(20 Sep 2023, 7:58 pm)ne14ne1 ‘Askew Road West/Oak Square’ (Metrocentre bound) is never announced in full.
Not sure if the geofence is too close to the stop or something but most of the time you only get “Next Stop” and then it’s cut off.
If a bus is approaching the stop slow enough you might get “Next Stop, Askew Road West” and then it’s cut off.
Also resolved.

Reverted back, so now unresolved.

(13 Oct 2023, 9:58 pm)Adrian Was on the 84 earlier, and I noticed the NSAs still get confused around the Barmston area. JFK being announced as the next stop, despite it needing to do a loop around Horsley Road first.

Noted this afternoon that this still doesn't work.
In addition, it announces the Victoria pub upon approaching, but not accounting that it turns left to serve stops to/from Brady Square first. It seems to then briefly announce Fatfield Road/Oxclose Road, remaining silent till it's returned from Brady Square and passed the Vic.
How can a system, that is implemented for the benefit of those with vision impairments, turn out to be so confusing for them?

Why does the Q3 announcement say “Voltra Q3” instead of “QuayCity Q3”?
