Go North East: Latest News & Discussion - September 2015

(06 Sep 2015, 6:09 pm)Dan wrote Someone complained about a driver on the 2 using a 'City Centre' display with via points from Washington rather than Silksworth the other week - that's simply because some drivers see 'City Centre' and don't bother reading the second line of the driver message which would inform the driver which destination to use. We're looking at something to alleviate this problem by introducing a ticket machine link from the ETM to the destination controller, which would mean that the driver would type in their journey number and it would automatically select the correct destination. This is quite a long way off yet though.

It annoys me when the wrong destination is used. I often see drivers use the AM destination for the PM journeys when i'm walking down to try and find my bus on a night - feel like telling them but doing it infront of friends and others would just make me look like a twat imo.

Anyway, how is the trial regarding the Quaylink destinations going? (NSAs auto changing destination)
