Whenever i'm on my way to Ilford, the ibus plays up saying Little Ilford Lane then a few seconds later it says the previous stop Seventh Avenue, and then another few seconds later it says Little Iflord Lane.
I wonder why this is happening? A fault?

Also happens on route 5, 175 and 128 at Becontree Heath - all route serve the bus station but for a couple of hours a day they serve the stop outside at Althorne Way. Unfortunately the iBus gets confused and will announce "Becontree Heath Bus Station", "Althorne Way" and then do "Becontree Heath" again

Thanks - we will get this checked. I assume that its all buses on the 25 and 86.

Otherwise during the day the pull in to the bus station and the system gets confused

We will check it - maybe its some local arrangement that has not been captured in ibus. Why is there different arrangements?

I think the reason why the ibus is playing up is because the ibus reads Little Ilford Lane first, and then it reads the bus stop which has been closed for years. Thats strange. Also they have changed the stop "The Old Dispensary" to Litchfield Avenue.

I've never had this problem when using the N86 along this stretch. Saying this, the N86 and 174 used to use different announcements for the same terminus ;D

Can you confirm if there is a bus stop being announced that is closed so we can get this recified?

Can you confirm the name of the closed stop - is it Seventh Ave. I assume that this is a long term closure if so we need to get this recified. Some specific details would greatly assist? Thanks. I rode the 86 again yesterday, i can confirm they are announcing the closed bus stop

That stop has been closed for nearly 6 years and i don't know why it is closed I think the reason it has been closed is because of the bendy buses blocking side roads at stops when there is more than one bus at a bus stop.
