Whole idea of announcing it when departing EVERY stop is to reassure any blind or partially sighted and unfamiliar passengers who’ve just boarded that they are on the right service and heading in the right direction.
It should be when departing key calling points surely? I can understand it’s repetitive and unnecessary if it’s on too much. It does seems the opposite if it only says the service number once per whole trip! Such as for the 60 announce the service at Sunderland, Grangetown, Ryhope, Mill Inn, Byron Place, Dawdon.
