Wouldn’t be surprised if these got vandalised but they look really nice.

I prefer the more compact style to the clunky screens fit into bus stops, I believe those were in Kensington & Chelsea having seen them on the 74 in Earl’s Court and at Lister Hospital.

Having them on the bus flags will be nice. No need to squeeze into the bus shelter to have a look at the screen (whether the new type that doubles as an advert billboard in Kensington or the classic type).

Hopefully the e-paper route info means that information will be kept up to date? Probably being too hopeful on that last point.

They had these in Elephant & Castle in October. They are very good, but the thing is they are gonna get vandalised in the rough areas.

Will this new countdown also communicate to hard of hearing people or the deaf? I remember seeing on the TfL website that TfL were going to create a countdown that can communicate to hard of hearing or deaf people and they were going about it for years.

These look much better than the previous design they had which looked very dated in comparison. Shame there aren't extra options like a proper map of the bus routes involved for example
