You’d be very good at a period of self isolation at Bus Stop M, DG.

You don't think someone at TfL reads your blog? I'd be surprised if they didn't.

Fantastic news

Andrew: I'd guess they do - they have responded by e-mail to dg after blogs highlighting some issues previously.

This is not the world heritage site I was expecting for today's blog.

Now it's bus stop Z; will the anguish never end...?

It may not be a world heritage site today but maybe one day it will be. Bust stop M has got to be one of the most famous bus stops in London if not the world. It is probably already on UNESCO's list of sites to be considered for world heritage status.

I blogged about the incorrect tiles on 3rd January 2019. If somebody in the relevant department at TfL does read this blog, they took no action at all.

However they have been quite busy here on the Kent borders. A TfL bus stop in Swanley now has a tile marked 2, and route 3 has been extended to my nearest bus stop V.

I think someone at TfL does read your post and deliberately missed updating bus stop M so they could get more publicity.

Heartening news.

Meanwhile... Crystal Palace bus station is closed for rebuilding but all the posters and spider maps at nearby bus stops haven’t been updated and still show you can catch buses there!

Can anyone estimate the total number of tiles on all the Tfl bus stops?

dg writes: 50000

...gosh, almost forgot about Bus Stop M
...thus have now taken the step of placing it on my bucket-list of places to visit in London.

Perhaps the tfl bus stop team were saving it as a birthday treat.

We do not know for sure that the person who changed the tiles was not carrying the Covid 19 virus. Anyone could climb up the post and touch it by accident.

If tfl really did believe that the safety of their customers was their very highest first top priority, they would have waited until the pandemic was over.

I hadn't even realised I'd been longing for Bus Stop M news, but seeing this pop up in my RSS feed filled my heart with joy

It would be excellent if the new spider maps were as useful as the old ones.

dg writes: Bus Stop M has an old-style spider map, which remains up-to-date.

Now I wonder which route has the most stops with the same letter. An easy thing to find if the full bus data is out there.
