483 Windmill Park -> Ealing Hospital, Windmill Lane Another iBus change that was unnecessary, especially as the 483 used to only go to Ealing Hospital but was since extended to Windmill Park; which is what iBus accurately described it as.

I actually don't think that's a particularly bad change - Windmill Park is only down the road from Ealing Hospital after all, about a 5 minute walk in fact as I've done it myself. Windmill Park, according to Google Maps, comes under Southall but to have Southall on the blinds would be misleading IMO as people may expect the 483 to serve the main part of Southall

The boundary being the River Brent under the viaduct.

Fair enough then in that case. I still thinking Windmill Park was more further down.

When the 486 contract was renewed a bright spark in the contracts department at TfL changed Bexleyheath Shopping Centre to Bexleyheath Town Centre.
After a while common sense prevailed and the destination blinds reverted to Bexleyheath Shopping Centre.
The iBus displays and announcements remain as Bexleyheath Town Centre.
Consistent customer information used to be essential.

I believe the display is Town Centre going forwards which is why it's not been changed on the iBus displays.

That change occurred early 2021 It was and still happens sometimes in error. (It's one of my local routes which I use most days.) Also applied to route 422.

Also applied to route 422. 422 some of the buses have newer blinds. Overall who cares because every minute destinations are updated pointlessly after ITTs are issued…
